attr: add counted string version of git_check_attr()

Often a potential caller has <path, pathlen> pair that
represents the path it wants to ask attributes for; when
path[pathlen] is not NUL, the caller has to xmemdupz()
only to call git_check_attr().

Add git_check_attr_counted() that takes such a counted
string instead of "const char *path".
