gpg_verify_tag() shows the passed in object name on error. Both callers
provide one. It falls back to abbreviated hashes for future callers
that pass in a NULL name. DEFAULT_ABBREV is default_abbrev, which in
turn is a global variable that's populated by git_default_config() and
only available with USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE.
Don't let that hypothetical hold us back from getting rid of
the_repository in tag.c. Fall back to full hashes, which are more
appropriate for error messages anyway. This allows us to stop setting
USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE.
