Instead of checking reachability from the refs, you can ask
fsck to check from a particular set of heads. However, the
error checking here is quite lax. In particular:

  1. It claims lookup_object() will report an error, which
     is not true. It only does a hash lookup, and the user
     has no clue that their argument was skipped.

  2. When either the name or sha1 cannot be resolved, we
     continue to exit with a successful error code, even
     though we didn't check what the user asked us to.

This patch fixes both of these cases.
