Jeff King 2deda629c2 replace: add a --raw mode for --edit
One of the purposes of "git replace --edit" is to help a
user repair objects which are malformed or corrupted.
Usually we pretty-print trees with "ls-tree", which is much
easier to work with than the raw binary data.  However, some
forms of corruption break the tree-walker, in which case our
pretty-printing fails, rendering "--edit" useless for the
user.

This patch introduces a "--raw" option, which lets you edit
the binary data in these instances.
