Derrick Stolee 570df42610 chunk-format: create chunk format write API ...

In anticipation of combining the logic from the commit-graph and
multi-pack-index file formats, create a new chunk-format API. Use a
'struct chunkfile' pointer to keep track of data that has been
registered for writes. This struct is anonymous outside of
chunk-format.c to ensure no user attempts to interfere with the data.

The next change will use this API in commit-graph.c, but the general
approach is:

 1. initialize the chunkfile with init_chunkfile(f).
 2. add chunks in the intended writing order with add_chunk().
 3. write any header information to the hashfile f.
 4. write the chunkfile data using write_chunkfile().
 5. free the chunkfile struct using free_chunkfile().
