sha1-file: add function to update existing loose object cache

Create a function to add a new object to the loose object cache
after the existing odb/xx/ directory was scanned.

This will be used in a later commit to keep the loose object
cache fresh after dynamically fetching an individual object
and without requiring the odb/xx/ directory to be rescanned.
