odb: only provide the empty tree
Only provide the empty tree internally, which matches git's behavior.
If we provide the empty blob then any users trying to write it with
libgit2 would omit it from actually landing in the odb, which appear
to git proper as a broken repository (missing that object).

odb: `git_odb_object` contents are never NULL
This is a contract that we made in the library and that we need to uphold. The
contents of a blob can never be NULL because several parts of the library (including
the filter and attributes code) expect `git_blob_rawcontent` to always return a
valid pointer.

odb: hardcode the empty blob and tree
git hardocodes these as objects which exist regardless of whether they
are in the odb and uses them in the shell interface as a way of
expressing the lack of a blob or tree for one side of e.g. a diff.
In the library we use each language's natural way of declaring a lack of
value which makes a workaround like this unnecessary. Since git uses it,
it does however mean each shell application would need to perform this
check themselves.
This makes it common work across a range of applications and an issue
with compatibility with git, which fits right into what the library aims
to provide.
Thus we introduce the hard-coded empty blob and tree in the odb
frontend. These hard-coded objects are checked for before going to the
backends, but after the cache check, which means the second time they're
used, they will be treated as normal cached objects instead of creating
new ones.
