[PATCH 4/5] cat-file: simplify reading from standard input

[Patrick Steinhardt <ps@xxxxxx>]

The batch modes of git-cat-file(1) read queries from stantard input that
are either newline- or NUL-delimited. This code was introduced via
db9d67f2e9 (builtin/cat-file.c: support NUL-delimited input with `-z`,
2022-07-22), which notes that:

"""
The refactoring here is slightly unfortunate, since we turn loops like:

     while (strbuf_getline(&buf, stdin) != EOF)

 into:

     while (1) {
         int ret;
         if (opt->nul_terminated)
             ret = strbuf_getline_nul(&input, stdin);
         else
             ret = strbuf_getline(&input, stdin);

         if (ret == EOF)
             break;
     }
"""

The commit proposed introducing a helper function that is easier to use,
which is just what we have done in the preceding commit. Refactor the
code to use this new helper to simplify the loop.
