define a structure for object IDs

Many places throughout the code use "unsigned char [20]" to store object IDs
(SHA-1 values).  This leads to lots of hardcoded numbers throughout the
codebase.  It also leads to confusion about the purposes of a buffer.

Introduce a structure for object IDs.  This allows us to obtain the benefits
of compile-time checking for misuse.  The structure is expected to remain
the same size and have the same alignment requirements on all known
platforms, compared to the array of unsigned char, although this is not
required for correctness.
