Its very annoying to need to specify the file content ahead of a
commit and use marks to connect the individual blobs to the commit's
file modification entry, especially if the frontend can't/won't
generate the blob SHA1s itself. Instead it would much easier to
use if we can accept the blob data at the same time as we receive
each file_change line.
Now fast-import accepts 'inline' instead of a mark idnum or blob
SHA1 within the 'M' type file_change command. If an inline is
detected the very next line must be a 'data n' command, supplying
the file data.

It is error prone to list the value of each file twice, instead we
should list the value only once early in the script and reuse the
shell variable when we need to access it.

Now that its easier to craft test cases (thanks to 'data <<')
we should start to verify fast-import works as expected.
