Directory sync can compare against a remote git reference and refuses invalid object ids.

What
The directory sync path can now build its comparison base from a remote reference by listing the cloned tree with git ls-tree -r -z --full-tree under GIT_NO_LAZY_FETCH=1, and refuses when the tree or commit is not a valid object id.
Details
- It reads
core.filemodeto decide whether file modes from the listing can be trusted. - The stored-base validator now rejects malformed tree references with a message about a sync base naming a path or commit its reader would refuse.
- Only the directory sync path uses this; nothing else in the build reaches it.
Evidence
sync base names a path or commit its reader would refuse
