Title: Add support for using short hex string prefixes

Following on from pull request #50, I've implemented support for using short hex prefixes in Repository_getitem, Repository_read(_raw), Repository_create_commit (for referring to the tree and parents), and Repository_create_tag (for referring to the tag target) to use short hex strings to lookup objects.
