From: Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com>

The functions init_db() and initialize_repository_version() were shared
by builtin/init-db.c and builtin/clone.c, and declared in cache.h.

Move these functions, plus their several helpers only used by these
functions, to setup.[ch].

Diff best viewed with `--color-moved`.
