1. lib/commit: Don't chown objects to repo target owner …

   The idea is that if the process is running as root, it can change
   ownership of newly written files to match the owner of the repo.
   Unfortunately, it currently applies in the other direction, too - a
   non-root user writing to a root owned repository. If the repo is
   writable by the user but owned by root, it can still create files and
   directories there, but it can't change ownership of them.
   
   This feature comes from
   https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=738954. As it turns out, this
   feature was never completed. It only works on content objects and not
   metadata objects, refs, deltas, summaries, etc. Rather than try to fix
   all of those, remove the feature until someone has interest in
   completing it.
