We often represent our strings as a counted string, i.e. a pair of the
pointer to the beginning of the string and its length, and the string
may not be NUL terminated to that length.
To compare a pair of such counted strings, unpack-trees.c and
read-cache.c implement their own name_compare() functions identically.
In addition, the cache_name_compare() function in read-cache.c is nearly
identical. The only difference is when one string is the prefix of the
other string, in which case the former returns -1/+1 to show which one
is longer and the latter returns the difference of the lengths to show
the same information.
Unify these three functions by using the implementation from
cache_name_compare(). This does not make any difference to the existing
and future callers, as they must be paying attention only to the sign of
the returned value (and not the magnitude) because the original
implementations of these two functions return values returned by
memcmp(3) when the one string is not a prefix of the other string, and
the only thing memcmp(3) guarantees its callers is the sign of the
returned value, not the magnitude.
