The standard Google distribution of Protocol Buffers in Java is better
maintained than TinyProtobuf, and should be faster for most uses. It
does use slightly more memory due to many of our key types being
stored as strings in protobuf messages, but this is probably worth the
small hit to memory in exchange for better maintained code that is
easier to reuse in other applications.
Exposing all of our data members to the underlying implementation
makes it easier to develop reporting and data mining tools, or to
expand out a nested structure like RefData into a flat format in a SQL
database table.
Since the C++ `protoc` tool is necessary to convert the protobuf
script into Java code, the generated files are committed as part of
the source repository to make it easier for developers who do not have
this tool installed to still build the overall JGit package and make
use of it. Reviewers will need to be careful to ensure that any edits
made to a *.proto file come in a commit that also updates the
generated code to match.

jgit.storage.dht is a storage provider implementation for JGit that
permits storing the Git repository in a distributed hashtable, NoSQL
system, or other database. The actual underlying storage system is
undefined, and can be plugged in by implementing 7 small interfaces:
* Database
* RepositoryIndexTable
* RepositoryTable
* RefTable
* ChunkTable
* ObjectIndexTable
* WriteBuffer
The storage provider interface tries to assume very little about the
underlying storage system, and requires only three key features:
* key -> value lookup (a hashtable is suitable)
* atomic updates on single rows
* asynchronous operations (Java's ExecutorService is easy to use)
Most NoSQL database products offer all 3 of these features in their
clients, and so does any decent network based cache system like the
open source memcache product. Relying only on key equality for data
retrevial makes it simple for the storage engine to distribute across
multiple machines. Traditional SQL systems could also be used with a
JDBC based spi implementation.
Before submitting this change I have implemented six storage systems
for the spi layer:
* Apache HBase[1]
* Apache Cassandra[2]
* Google Bigtable[3]
* an in-memory implementation for unit testing
* a JDBC implementation for SQL
* a generic cache provider that can ride on top of memcache
All six systems came in with an spi layer around 1000 lines of code to
implement the above 7 interfaces. This is a huge reduction in size
compared to prior attempts to implement a new JGit storage layer. As
this package shows, a complete JGit storage implementation is more
than 17,000 lines of fairly complex code.
A simple cache is provided in storage.dht.spi.cache. Implementers can
use CacheDatabase to wrap any other type of Database and perform fast
reads against a network based cache service, such as the open source
memcached[4]. An implementation of CacheService must be provided to
glue this spi onto the network cache.

We need to use findbugs-maven-plugin:2.3.2-SNAPSHOT
since otherwise build fails with maven-3.0 [1], [2].
We should switch to the release version as soon
as this becomes available.

Created wrong tags for 0.8.3 hence creating another version.

The strings are externalized into the root resource bundles.
The resource bundles are stored under the new "resources" source
folder to get proper maven build.
Strings from tests are, in general, not externalized. Only in
cases where it was necessary to make the test pass the strings
were externalized. This was typically necessary in cases where
e.getMessage() was used in assert and the exception message was
slightly changed due to reuse of the externalized strings.

Since the API is changing relative to 0.7.0, we'll call our next
release 0.8.1. But until that gets released, builds from master
will be 0.8.0.qualifier.

Translate the version qualifier using maven-antrun-plugin since we want
manifest-first and currently cannot rely on Tycho for the JGit build.
Introduce property for Eclipse p2 repository to enable builds against
other Eclipse versions.
