    odb: add option to turn off hash verification
    
    Verifying hashsums of objects we are reading from the ODB may be costly
    as we have to perform an additional hashsum calculation on the object.
    Especially when reading large objects, the penalty can be as high as
    35%, as can be seen when executing the equivalent of `git cat-file` with
    and without verification enabled. To mitigate for this, we add a global
    option for libgit2 which enables the developer to turn off the
    verification, e.g. when he can be reasonably sure that the objects on
    disk won't be corrupted.
