more completely solve catKey memory leak
Done using a mode witness, which ensures it's fixed everywhere. Fixing catFileKey was a bear, because git cat-file does not provide a nice way to query for the mode of a file and there is no other efficient way to do it. Oh, for libgit2.. Note that I am looking at tree objects from HEAD, rather than the index. Because I cat-file cannot show a tree object for the index. So this fix is technically incomplete. The only cases where it matters are: 1. A new large file has been directly staged in git, but not committed. 2. A file that was committed to HEAD as a symlink has been staged directly in the index. This could be fixed a lot better using libgit2.
