The configuration of repository formats is split up across two functions
`validate_hash_algorithm()` and `validate_ref_storage_format()`. This is
fine as-is, but we are about to extend the logic to also read default
values from the config. With the logic split across two functions, we
would either have to pass in additional parameters read from the config,
or read the config multiple times. Both of these options feel a bit
unwieldy.
Combining the repository format configuration logic into a single
function seems like a good option. It looks like go we even further
though since we also include setting the hash and ref format for
`the_repository`. Might be nice to also mention this.
Merge the code into a new a new function `repository_format_configure()`
s/new a new/new/
that is responsible for configuring the whole repository's format. Like
this, we can easily read the config in a single place, only.

The above comment somewhat made it sound like the repository format had
to be configured for both the hash algo and ref storage before updating
`the_repository`, but that does not seem to be a requirement in
actuality.

-	repo_set_hash_algo(the_repository, repo_fmt.hash_algo);
-	repo_set_ref_storage_format(the_repository, repo_fmt.ref_storage_format);
+	repository_format_configure(&repo_fmt, hash, ref_storage_format);
Overall, I like that this repostory format configuration is under
`repository_format_configure()`. The `validate_*()` functions names
confused me slightly initially because I assumed they were only
validating, but they also configure the repo format. Looking good :)
