So, relative to the original, instead of relying on the repository
and its knowledge of what hash function is used, we ask the stack
what hash function is in use and use that instead.

Here is the original that got replaced. Since ...

... we have access to "refs", which is a ref_store, that knows its
repository, it was just a few pointer references away to get the
hash id of the Git side. But of course we use REFTABLE_HASH_*NAME*
to identify the algorithm at this layer, so we need to translate it
back to the ide on the Git side before asking oidread() to read it.

There is one thing that is curious about this step.
It isn't like we teach stack what hash it uses in this step---the
reftable_stack_hash_id() could have been implemented as early as
59343984 (reftable/system: stop depending on "hash.h", 2024-11-08).
Other than that this step introduces the first caller of
reftable_stack_hash_id() in the series, the remaining hunks of this
patch do not have to be part of this patch, but could have been a
separate step. Not a suggestion to split it out, but merely an
observation (to make sure I am reading the code correctly).
