[PATCH v2 5/7] reftable: ensure that obj_id_len is >= 2 on writing

["Han-Wen Nienhuys via GitGitGadget" <gitgitgadget@xxxxxxxxx>]

From: Han-Wen Nienhuys <hanwen@xxxxxxxxxx>

When writing the same hash many times, we might decide to use a
length-1 object ID prefix for the ObjectID => ref table, which is out
of spec.
