[PATCH v5] Replace memcpy with hashcpy when dealing hash copy globally

[PATCH v5] Replace memcpy with hashcpy when dealing hash copy globally

[Sun He]

We invented hashcpy() to keep the abstraction of "object
name" behind it. Use it instead of calling memcpy() with
hard-coded 20-byte length when moving object names between
pieces of memory.

Leave ppc/sha1.c as it is, because the function is about the
SHA-1 hash algorithm whose output is and will always be 20-byte.

PATCH v5 changed the reason why should take this patch as tutored by
Junio C Hamano.
 Thanks to Junio C Hamano again. :-)

PATCH v5 move the two line behind the "---"
  We can benefit from it, when we switch to another hash algorithm,
  eg. MD5, by just updating the hashcpy().

PATCH v4 changed the reason why should take this patch as tutored by
Junio C Hamano.
 Thanks to Junio C Hamano

PATCH v3 delete the one-space indentation on each line of commit message
as is suggested by Eric Sunshine.
 Thanks to Eric Sunshine.

PATCH v2 leave ppc/sha1.c alone.

The general rule is if cache.h or git-compat-util.h is included,
it is the first #include, and system includes will be always in
git-compat-tuil.h.
       				via Duy Nguyen

The change in PATCH v1 is not proper because I placed cache.h
in the end.
And adding it to the head is not a good way to achieve the goal,
as is said above "---".
 Thanks to Duy Nguyen.

Find the potential places with memcpy by the bash command:
 $ git grep 'memcpy.*20'
