Read the metadata tree in one git call

The issue and change-request loaders read the metadata tree with one
`git cat-file` per file, so a page render cost as many processes as the
branch had issues and comments. On a repository with 30 change requests
the overview paid 114 git invocations and 98 ms; the requests list paid
72 and 90 ms.

Read every listed blob through a single `cat-file --batch`. The push
validators share the same helper, so pre-receive stops paying one
process per file as well.

The metadata branch is the whole source of truth for issues and changes,
so this is the read path that grows with use. Nothing about the format or
the size limits changes: an oversized file is still refused before any of
it is allocated.
