Going from unsigned to signed int means the patch breaks support for
more than 2G pack entries, which was put with 326bf39677 (Use uint32_t
for all packed object counts.) in 2007.

Why hide the type? It doesn't make the function more generic.

Why not use sha1_pos()? I guess because it avoids the overhead of the
accessor function, right? And I wonder how much of difference it makes.
A binary search function for embedded hashes just needs the key, a
pointer to the first hash in the array, the stride and the number of
elements. It can then be used with or without a fanout table, making it
more versatile. Just a thought.
