parse_object_buffer: correct freeing the buffersb/parse-object-buffer-eaten
If we exit early in the function parse_object_buffer, we did not
write to *eaten_p. Then the calling function parse_object, which looks
like the following with respect to the eaten variable, cannot rely on a
proper value set in eaten, hence the freeing of the buffer depends
on random values in memory.
struct object *parse_object(const unsigned char *sha1)
{
int eaten;
...
obj = parse_object_buffer(sha1, type, size, buffer, &eaten);
if (!eaten)
free(buffer);
}
This change makes sure, the buffer freeing condition is deterministic.
