Merge branch 'jh/fsck-promisors'

Browse Source 
In preparation for implementing narrow/partial clone, the machinery
for checking object connectivity used by gc and fsck has been
taught that a missing object is OK when it is referenced by a
packfile specially marked as coming from trusted repository that
promises to make them available on-demand and lazily.

* jh/fsck-promisors:
  gc: do not repack promisor packfiles
  rev-list: support termination at promisor objects
  sha1_file: support lazily fetching missing objects
  introduce fetch-object: fetch one promisor object
  index-pack: refactor writing of .keep files
  fsck: support promisor objects as CLI argument
  fsck: support referenced promisor objects
  fsck: support refs pointing to promisor objects
  fsck: introduce partialclone extension
  extension.partialclone: introduce partial clone extension

When the config key `extensions.preciousObjects` is set to `true`,
objects in the repository MUST NOT be deleted (e.g., by `git-prune` or
`git repack -d`).
`partialclone`
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When the config key `extensions.partialclone` is set, it indicates
that the repo was created with a partial clone (or later performed
a partial fetch) and that the remote may have omitted sending
certain unwanted objects. Such a remote is called a "promisor remote"
and it promises that all such omitted objects can be fetched from it
in the future.
The value of this key is the name of the promisor remote.
