object-file: move safe_create_leading_directories() into "path.c"

The `safe_create_leading_directories()` function and its relatives are
located in "object-file.c", which is not a good fit as they provide
generic functionality not related to objects at all. Move them into
"path.c", which already hosts `safe_create_dir()` and its relative
`safe_create_dir_in_gitdir()`.

"path.c" is free of `the_repository`, but the moved functions depend on
`the_repository` to read the "core.sharedRepository" config. Adapt the
function signature to accept a repository as argument to fix the issue
and adjust callers accordingly.

/*
* Create the directory containing the named path, using care to be
* somewhat safe against races. Return one of the scld_error values to
* indicate success/failure. On error, set errno to describe the
* problem.
*
* SCLD_VANISHED indicates that one of the ancestor directories of the
* path existed at one point during the function call and then
* suddenly vanished, probably because another process pruned the
* directory while we were working. To be robust against this kind of
* race, callers might want to try invoking the function again when it
* returns SCLD_VANISHED.
*
* safe_create_leading_directories() temporarily changes path while it
* is working but restores it before returning.
* safe_create_leading_directories_const() doesn't modify path, even
* temporarily. Both these variants adjust the permissions of the
* created directories to honor core.sharedRepository, so they are best
* suited for files inside the git dir. For working tree files, use
* safe_create_leading_directories_no_share() instead, as it ignores
* the core.sharedRepository setting.
