RepoHook: allow users to approve hooks via manifests
The constant prompting when registered hooks change can be tedious and
has a large multiplication factor when the project is large (e.g. the
AOSP). It gets worse as people want to write more checks, hooks, docs,
and tests (or fix bugs), but every CL that goes in will trigger a new
prompt to approve.
Let's tweak our trust model when it comes to hooks. Since people start
off by calling `repo init` with a URL to a manifest, and that manifest
defines all the hooks, anchor trust in that. This requires that we get
the manifest over a trusted link (e.g. https or ssh) so that it can't
be MITM-ed. If the user chooses to use an untrusted link (e.g. git or
http), then we'll fallback to the existing hash based approval.
