In rerere_gc(), we walk over the .git/rr_cache directory and create a
struct for each entry we find. We feed any name we get from readdir() to
find_rerere_dir(), which then calls get_sha1_hex() on it (since we use
the binary hash as a lookup key). If that fails (i.e., the directory
name is not what we expected), it returns NULL. But the comment in
find_rerere_dir() says "BUG".
It _would_ be a bug for the call from new_rerere_id_hex(), the only
other code path, to fail here; it's generating the hex internally. But
the call in rerere_gc() is using it say "is this a plausible directory
name".
Let's instead have rerere_gc() do its own "is this plausible" check.
That has two benefits:
- we can now reliably BUG() inside find_rerere_dir(), which would
catch bugs in the other code path (and we now will never return NULL
from the function, which makes it easier to see that a rerere_id
struct will always have a non-NULL "collection" field).
- it makes the use of the binary hash an implementation detail of
find_rerere_dir(), not known by callers. That will free us up to
change it in a future patch.

Obviously I have an ulterior motive here, but mostly this just seemed
to make the code clearer to me. The separation of concerns might also
help if we did something more exotic with rerere conflict hashes (which
just use the_hash_algo now, but really don't have to).
