The code path that enumerates promisor objects have been optimized
to skip pointlessly parsing blob objects.
* ap/packfile-promisor-object-optim:
packfile: skip hash checks in add_promisor_object()
object: apply skip_hash and discard_tree optimizations to unknown blobs too
Every now and then we see this coming up on the list. Let's help
new contributors who are not aware of past discussions by clearly
documenting our past consensus.

streaming: drop the `open()` callback function
streaming: rename `git_istream` into `odb_read_stream`
Copy detection cannot work when comparing the index to the working tree
because Git ignores files that it is not explicitly told to track. It
should work in the other direction, though, i.e. for a reverse diff of
the deletion of a copy from the index.
d1f2d7e8ca (Make run_diff_index() use unpack_trees(), not read_tree(),
2008-01-19) broke it with a seemingly stray change to run_diff_files().
We didn't notice because there's no test for that. But even if we had
one, it might have gone unnoticed because the breakage only happens
with index preloading, which requires at least 1000 entries (more than
most test repos have) and is racy because it runs in parallel with the
actual command.
Fix copy detection by queuing up-to-date and skip-worktree entries using
diff_same().
While at it, use diff_same() also for queuing unchanged files not
flagged as up-to-date, i.e. clean submodules and entries where
preloading was not done at all or not quickly enough. It uses less
memory than diff_change() and doesn't unnecessarily set the diff flag
has_changes.
Add two tests to cover running both without and with preloading. The
first one passes reliably with the original code. The second one
enables preloading and thus is racy. It has a good chance to pass even
without the fix, but fails within seconds when running the test script
with --stress. With the fix it runs fine for several minutes, until
my patience runs out.
