Christian Couder 6809557029 replace_object: add mechanism to replace objects found in "refs/replace/" ...

The code implementing this mechanism has been copied more-or-less
from the commit graft code.

This mechanism is used in "read_sha1_file". sha1 passed to this
function that match a ref name in "refs/replace/" are replaced by
the sha1 that has been read in the ref.

We "die" if the replacement recursion depth is too high or if we
can't read the replacement object.
