[v2,06/29] cache.h: have base_name_compare() take "is tree?", not "mode"

Series tree-walk: mostly "mode" to "enum object_type" | expand

Commit Message

Change the base_name_compare() API and the related df_name_compare()
function to take a boolean argument indicating whether the entry is a
tree or not, instead of having them call S_ISDIR(mode) on their own.

This makes use of the new "object_type" field in the "name_entry".

The API being modified here was originally added way back in
958ba6c96eb (Introduce "base_name_compare()" helper function,
2005-05-20).

Um...these last two hunks have not changed since the last round.  They
introduce a nasty bug, as mentioned in my review last time and
highlighted in my response on the cover letter.  They need to be
fixed, and more testcases verifying their correct operation should be
added.

This is the kind of thing that makes me really scared about these
refactorings; it's too easy to introduce changes that will write
semi-broken objects in the wild, which we will then have to deal with
for the rest of forever.

The isdir -> istree updates are nice; thanks.
