Patrick Steinhardt 96a9a3e42e bundle: default to SHA1 when reading bundle headers ...

We hit a segfault when trying to open a bundle via `git bundle
list-heads` when running outside of a repository. This is caused by
c8aed5e8da (repository: stop setting SHA1 as the default object hash,
2024-05-07), which stopped setting the default object hash so that
`the_hash_algo` is a `NULL` pointer when running outside of any repo.

This is only a symptom of a deeper issue though. Bundles default to the
SHA1 object format unless they advertise an "@object-format=" header.
Consequently, it has been wrong in the first place to use the object
format used by the current repository when parsing bundles. The
consequence is that trying to open a bundle that uses a different object
hash than the current repository will fail:

    $ git bundle list-heads sha1.bundle
    error: unrecognized header: ee4b540943284700a32591ad09f7e15bdeb2a10c HEAD (45)

Fix the bug by defaulting to the SHA1 object hash. We already handle the
"@object-format=" header as expected, so we don't need to adapt this
part.
