The submodule code wants to temporarily add an alternate
object store to our in-memory alt_odb list, but does it
manually. Let's provide a helper so it can reuse the code in
link_alt_odb_entry().

While we're adding our new add_to_alternates_memory(), let's
document add_to_alternates_file(), as the two are related.
