Remove unnecessary duplicate_count in fast-import.

There is little reason to be keeping a global duplicate_count
value when we also keep it per object type.  The global counter can
easily be computed at the end, once all processing has completed.

Chose better tag names in git-describe after merges.

Recently git.git itself encountered a situation on its master and
next branches where git-describe stopped reporting 'v1.5.0-rc0-gN'
and instead started reporting 'v1.4.4.4-gN'.  This appeared to be
a backward jump in version numbering.

  maint     o-------------------4
            \                    \
  master     o-o-o-o-o-o-o-5-o-C-o-W

The issue is that commit C in the diagram claims it is version
1.5.0, as the tag v1.5.0 is placed on commit 5.  Yet commit W
claims it is version 1.4.4.4 as the tag v1.5.0 has an older tag
date than the v1.4.4.4 tag.

As it turns out this situation is very common.  A bug fix applied
to maint and later merged into master occurs frequently enough that
it should Just Work Right(tm).

Rather than taking the first tag that gets found git-describe will
now generate a list of all possible tags and select the one which
has the most number of commits in common with HEAD (or whatever
revision the user requested the description of).

This rule is based on the principle shown in the diagram above.
There are a large number of commits on the primary development branch
'master' which do not appear in the 'maint' branch, and many of
these are already tagged as part of v1.5.0-rc0.  Additionally these
commits are not in v1.4.4.4, as they are part of the v1.5.0 release
still being developed.  The v1.5.0-rc0 tag is more descriptive of
W than v1.4.4.4 is, and therefore should be used.

Better error messages for corrupt databases

This fixes another problem that Andy's case showed: git-fsck-objects
reports nonsensical results for corrupt objects.

There were actually two independent and confusing problems:

 - when we had a zero-sized file and used map_sha1_file, mmap() would
   return EINVAL, and git-fsck-objects would report that as an insane and
   confusing error. I don't know when this was introduced, it might have
   been there forever.

 - when "parse_object()" returned NULL, fsck would say "object not found",
   which can be very confusing, since obviously the object might "exist",
   it's just unparseable because it's totally corrupt.

So this just makes "xmmap()" return NULL for a zero-sized object (which is
a valid thing pointer, exactly the same way "malloc()" can return NULL for
a zero-sized allocation). That fixes the first problem (but we could have
fixed it in the caller too - I don't personally much care whichever way it
goes, but maybe somebody should check that the NO_MMAP case does
something sane in this case too?).

And the second problem is solved by just making the error message slightly
clearer - the failure to parse an object may be because it's missing or
corrupt, not necessarily because it's not "found".
