Add a repository argument to allow sha1_file_name callers to be more
specific about which repository to handle. This is a small mechanical
change; it doesn't change the implementation to handle repositories
other than the_repository yet.

As with the previous commits, use a macro to catch callers passing a
repository other than the_repository at compile time.

While at it, move the declaration to object-store.h, where it should
be easier to find.

Seems like we may want to make a sha1-file.h or an oid-file.h or
something like that at some point as that seems like a better place for
the function than in the object-store.h file?

It depends what our long term goal is.
Do we want header and source file name to match for each function?
Or do we want a coarser set of headers, such that we have a broad
object-store.h, but that is implemented in sha1_file.c, packfile.c
for the parts of the raw_objectstore and other .c files for the higher
levels of the object store?

For now I'd just keep it in object-store.h as moving out just a couple
functions seems less consistent?

Fair enough :)
