This code predates prefixcmp, so it used memcmp along with
static sizes. Replacing these memcmps with prefixcmp makes
the code much more readable, and the lack of static sizes
will make refactoring it in future patches simpler.

Note that we used to be unnecessarily liberal in parsing the
"unpack" status line, and would accept "unpack ok\njunk". No
version of git has ever produced that, and it violates the
BNF in Documentation/technical/pack-protocol.txt. Let's take
this opportunity to tighten the check by converting the
prefix comparison into a strcmp.

While we're in the area, let's also fix a vague error
message that does not follow our usual conventions (it
writes directly to stderr and does not use the "error:"
prefix).
