e993dc4f16 survey: add object count summary
At the moment, nothing is obvious about the reason for the use of the
path-walk API, but this will become more prevelant in future iterations. For
now, use the path-walk API to sum up the counts of each kind of object.

For example, this is the reachable object summary output for my local repo:

REACHABLE OBJECT SUMMARY
========================
Object Type |  Count

       Tags |   1343
    Commits | 179344
      Trees | 314350

da06654805 survey: start pretty printing data in table form
When 'git survey' provides information to the user, this will be presented
in one of two formats: plaintext and JSON. The JSON implementation will be
delayed until the functionality is complete for the plaintext format.

The most important parts of the plaintext format are headers specifying the
different sections of the report and tables providing concreted data.

Create a custom table data structure that allows specifying a list of
strings for the row values. When printing the table, check each column for
the maximum width so we can create a table of the correct size from the
start.

The table structure is designed to be flexible to the different kinds of
output that will be implemented in future changes.

493fad1aa0 survey: add command line opts to select references
By default we will scan all references in "refs/heads/", "refs/tags/"
and "refs/remotes/".

Add command line opts let the use ask for all refs or a subset of them
and to include a detached HEAD.

957fdf42af survey: stub in new experimental 'git-survey' command
Start work on a new 'git survey' command to scan the repository
for monorepo performance and scaling problems.  The goal is to
measure the various known "dimensions of scale" and serve as a
foundation for adding additional measurements as we learn more
about Git monorepo scaling problems.

The initial goal is to complement the scanning and analysis performed
by the GO-based 'git-sizer' (https://github.com/github/git-sizer) tool.
It is hoped that by creating a builtin command, we may be able to take
advantage of internal Git data structures and code that is not
accessible from GO to gain further insight into potential scaling
problems.
