Oh, what you said makes sense. The refactoring of `cat-file --batch`
using `ref-filter` logic seems to have little to do with the task of letting
`ref-filter` learn short-name atoms at the time. I will shift the focus of
my work

Thanks for the tip! Olga uses `format_cat_file_item()` in
batch_object_write() , which may be the correct approach.
Before that, we have to make ref-filter support "%(contents:raw)"
(similar to Olga's "%(raw)") and "%(rest)".
