attr: convert git_all_attrs() to use "struct attr_check"

This updates the other two ways the attribute check is done via an
array of "struct attr_check_item" elements.  These two niches
appear only in "git check-attr".

 * The caller does not know offhand what attributes it wants to ask
   about and cannot use attr_check_initl() to prepare the
   attr_check structure.

 * The caller may not know what attributes it wants to ask at all,
   and instead wants to learn everything that the given path has.

Such a caller can call attr_check_alloc() to allocate an empty
attr_check, and then call attr_check_append() to add attribute names
one by one.
