I still wonder, do we want to pretend we have that object on disk
and proceed with the commit, or are the hardcoded objects only
supposed to be sufficient for in-core use?
Sorry, I responded in haste. The objects are supposed to be used in
core and then written out as needed, so I had been describing a bug.
How about this (in the spirit of patch 1/3)? If the approach is
right, I can add tests tomorrow.

Subject: update_one(): write out cached objects as needed
Although we can always pretend to have hardcoded objects such as
the empty tree in core, in the on-disk repository, if they are
referred to, they should be present. Currently, if we try to
write a tree that uses a hardcoded object, we can notice that the
object is missing and fail with "error: invalid object".
With this patch, the objects are written to disk as needed
instead.
