Speeds up two slow git paths. Results match `main` apart
from the `log.follow` fix.
- Activity top authors skip `--numstat` and an unused `rev-list
--count`, they only need names and emails
- Subdirectory listings pass only the directory as pathspec, which
already matches all its entries
- Directory listings pass `--no-follow` to `git log`, a configured
`log.follow` disabled parent rewriting and gave wrong last commits

Tested with unit and sqlite integration tests in default and `gogit`
builds on git 2.25 and 2.56, and by comparing listing results and cache
writes with `main` on randomized histories and the gitea, tea and git
repos. Benchmarks are medians of 8 interleaved macOS runs.
Unfortunately, we can't completely remove the ctx from git.Repository,
because the CatFileBatch still heavily depends on a parent context.
If we remove the Repository ctx, the CatFileBatch will become a mess and
create a lot of unnecessary git processes.

* Before: open a repo home, dozens of git processes (duplicate cat-file)
* After: only a few (no duplicate cat-file)
Change all license headers to comply with REUSE specification.

In investigating #7947 it has become clear that the storage component of go-git repositories needs closing.
This PR adds this Close function and adds the Close functions as necessary.
In TransferOwnership the ctx.Repo.GitRepo is closed if it is open to help prevent the risk of multiple open files.
Fixes#7947
