The logic for computing canonical references conflated the semantics of
annotated and lighweight tags, yielding confusing/wrong results. The
main culprit was the call to `peel_to_commit` in
`impl ReadRepository for Repository`, peeling tag objects away.
To resolve this, we separate out quroum computation per object type: one
implementation for commits, and one for tags.
Also move move canonical error types and methods into their own
module to have a cleaner file structure for the main logic.
Capture the `BTreeMap<Oid, u8>` type into a `Votes` struct, with its own API.
We were getting the objects from the repository twice – once in `Canonical::new`
and once again in `ensure_commit_or_tag` – so the latter was removed.
Use an `enum CanonicalObject` to specify which object types the canonical
process supports.
During `converges`, separate commits and tags, and ensure that we are only
looking at objects of one type. Note, that Fintan think this is actually the
*wrong* place to do it because we already filter the objects – so we should
keep track of that information higher up the callstack.

This set of changes refactors the canonical handling by isolating the business
logic into another type, `Canonical`.
The functionality remains the same, but certain error scenarios are better
handled. Primarily, the commits of the inner `Canonical` type are checked to see
if they exist in the working copy, and if not, provide a more useful message
about which commit was missing or invalid for which DID.
Reduce the nesting of if statements by using a `PushAction` enum that is
constructed by checking the `dst` reference and parsing the correct action, one
of:
- `OpenPatch`
- `UpdatePatch`
- `PushRef`
This makes the intent of the code a little bit more clear and reduces the tabbing
of big code blocks. It also captures the error specifically for handling the
parsing of this `dst` reference.
