    repo: validate repository paths
    
    Ensure that a repository's path (at initialization or open time) is
    valid.  On Windows systems, this means that the longest known path
    beneath the repository will fit within MAX_PATH: this is a lock file for
    a loose object within the repository itself.
    
    Other paths, like a very long loose reference, may fail to be opened
    after the repository is opened.  These variable length paths will be
    checked when they are accessed themselves.  This new functionality is
    done at open to prevent needlessly checking every file in the gitdir
    (eg, `MERGE_HEAD`) for its length when we could instead check once at
    repository open time.
