Subject: fsck: introduce `git fsck --connectivity-only`

This option avoids unpacking each and all blob objects, and just
verifies the connectivity. In particular with large repositories, this
speeds up the operation, at the expense of missing corrupt blobs,
ignoring unreachable objects and other fsck issues, if any.
