[PATCH v3 0/2] Add mailmap mechanism in cat-file options

[Siddharth Asthana <siddharthasthana31@gmail.com>]

Thanks a lot Avar for the review :) I have made the suggested changes.

= Description

At present, `git-cat-file` command with `--batch-check` and `-s` options
does not complain when `--use-mailmap` option is given. The latter
option is just ignored. Instead, for commit/tag objects, the command
should compute the size of the object after replacing the idents and
report it. So, this patch series makes `-s` and `--batch-check` options
of `git-cat-file` honor mailmap when used with `--use-mailmap` option.

In this patch series we didn't want to change that '%(objectsize)'
always shows the size of the original object even when `--use-mailmap`
is set because first we have the long term plan to unify how the formats
for `git cat-file` and other commands works. And second existing formats
like the "pretty formats" used bt `git log` have different options for
fields respecting mailmap or not respecting it (%an is for author name
while %aN for author name respecting mailmap).

I would like to thank my mentors, Christian Couder and John Cai, for all
of their help!
Looking forward to the reviews!

= Patch Organization

- The first patch makes `-s` option to return updated size of the
  <commit/tag> object, when combined with `--use-mailmap` option, after
  replacing the idents using the mailmap mechanism.
- The second patch makes `--batch-check` option to return updated size of
  the <commit/tag> object, when combined with `--use-mailmap` option,
  after replacing the idents using the mailmap mechanism.

= Changes in v2:

- The commit messages of both the patches have been improved.
- In the second patch, we were populating the `contentp` field of the
  `object_info` structure when `--batch-check` was combined with
  `--use-mailmap`. Which made us read the contents of tree and blob
  object types as well, which affected the performance. We should only
  be reading the contents for commit or tag object types. The second
  patch has been updated to do just that.

= Changes in v3:

- Make the tests a bit more self documenting by running commands in test
  without using mailmap flag.
- In the first patch added the test for tag objects as well.
