That reasoning is sound, I would think, but...

... this may be a bit too magical that the assumption needs to be
left in an in-code comment to warn people against temptation to
using "data" over there, not just where the type of verify_fn is
declared.  Essentially, you are changing the expectation from
existing functions of that type.

This made me wonder where this "unuse" comes from; w_curs's in-use
count is incremented by calling unpack_object_header() and we are
done with that access at this point, hence we have unuse here.

This codepath slurps the data in-core to hash and data is later
freed, i.e. non-blob objects and small ones are handled as before.

Otherwise, we'd go to check_sha1_signature() with map==NULL.  And
that is exactly what we want---map==NULL is the way we tell the
function to use the streaming interface to check.

Good.
