JGit currently has the leading '0' be a "hard stop".  Because this is
the fsck code running inside of the receive-pack service, validating
what the user sent is isn't malformed.  Its clearly malformed.
The "complain loudly to let the user know about the need to fix the
corrupt repository" comment was meant for the "git fsck" equivalent of
jgit (if there such a thing).

I think "hard stop to prevent corruption from getting propagated" is
actually something we should do in receive-pack in the reference
implementation if we don't do so already.
