[PATCH 1/5] index-pack: group the delta-base array entries also by type

[Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>]

Entries in the delta_base array are only grouped by the bytepattern in
the delta_base union, some of which have 20-byte object name of the base
object (i.e. base for REF_DELTA objects), while others have sizeof(off_t)
bytes followed by enough NULs to fill 20-byte.  The loops to iterate
through a range inside this array still needs to inspect the type of the
delta, and skip over false hits.

Group the entries also by type to eliminate the potential of false hits.

 * This is a resend of an earlier patch we already discussed; it is not a
   wrong thing to do per-se, but is somewhat difficult to trigger.  You
   would need to come up with an object name that consists of almost all
   NULs and other bytes that happen to be the same as an offset of some
   other object.
