/**
* The API provides storage and manipulation of sets of object identifiers.
* The emphasis is on storage and processing efficiency, making them suitable
* for large lists. Note that the ordering of items is not preserved over some
* operations.
*
* Examples
* --------
* -----------------------------------------
* int print_callback(const struct object_id *oid,
* void *data)
* {
* printf("%s\n", oid_to_hex(oid));
* return 0; // always continue
* }
*
* void some_func(void)
* {
* struct sha1_array hashes = OID_ARRAY_INIT;
* struct object_id oid;
*
* // Read objects into our set
* while (read_object_from_stdin(oid.hash))
* oid_array_append(&hashes, &oid);
*
* // Check if some objects are in our set
* while (read_object_from_stdin(oid.hash)) {
* if (oid_array_lookup(&hashes, &oid) >= 0)
* printf("it's in there!\n");
*
* // Print the unique set of objects. We could also have
* // avoided adding duplicate objects in the first place,
* // but we would end up re-sorting the array repeatedly.
* // Instead, this will sort once and then skip duplicates
* // in linear time.
