[PATCH 21/30] repository: Implement extensions.compatObjectFormat

["Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@gmail.com>]

From: "brian m. carlson" <sandals@crustytoothpaste.net>

Add a configuration option to enable updating and reading from
compatibility hash maps when git accesses the reposotiry.

Call the helper function repo_set_compat_hash_algo with the value
that compatObjectFormat is set to.

+extensions.compatObjectFormat::
+
+	Specify a compatitbility hash algorithm to use.  The acceptable values
+	are `sha1` and `sha256`.  The value specified must be different from the
+	value of extensions.objectFormat.  This allows client level
+	interoperability between git repositories whose objectFormat matches
+	this compatObjectFormat.  In particular when fully implemented the
+	pushes and pulls from a repository in whose objectFormat matches
+	compatObjectFormat.  As well as being able to use oids encoded in
+	compatObjectFormat in addition to oids encoded with objectFormat to
+	locally specify objects.
+
 extensions.worktreeConfig::
 	If enabled, then worktrees will load config settings from the
 	`$GIT_DIR/config.worktree` file in addition to the
