Commit 98e2092 taught cat-file to stream blobs with --batch,
which requires that we look up the object type before
loading it into memory. As a result, we now print the
object header from information in sha1_object_info, and the
actual contents from the read_sha1_file. We double-check
that the information we printed in the header matches the
content we are about to show.
Later, commit 93d2a60 allowed custom header lines for
--batch, and commit 5b08640 made type lookups optional. As a
result, specifying a header line without the type or size
means that we will not look up those items at all.
This causes our double-checking to erroneously die with an
error; we think the type or size has changed, when in fact
it was simply left at "0".
For the size, we can fix this by only doing the consistency
double-check when we have retrieved the size via
sha1_object_info. In the case that we have not retrieved the
value, that means we also did not print it, so there is
nothing for us to check that we are consistent with.
We could do the same for the type. However, besides our
consistency check, we also care about the type in deciding
whether to stream or not. We therefore make sure to always
trigger a type lookup when we are printing, so that even a
format without the type will stream as we would in the
normal case.
