[PATCH v3 1/3] object-name: remove unreachable "unknown type" handling

Remove the "unknown type" handling when displaying the ambiguous
object list. See [1] for the current output, and [1] for the commit
that added the "unknown type" handling.

The reason this code wasn't reachable is because we're not passing in
OBJECT_INFO_ALLOW_UNKNOWN_TYPE, so we'll just die in sort_ambiguous()
before we get to show_ambiguous_object():

    $ git rev-parse 8315
    error: short object ID 8315 is ambiguous
    hint: The candidates are:
    fatal: invalid object type

We should do better here, but let's leave that for some future
improvement. In a subsequent commit I'll improve the output we do
show, and not having to handle the "unknown type" case simplifies that
change.

Even though we know that this isn't reachable let's back that up with
an assert() both for self-documentation and sanity checking.

   then SHA-1, 2018-05-10)
2. 1ffa26c461 (get_short_sha1: list ambiguous objects on error,
   2016-09-26)
