The function `check_repository_format_gently()` receives a format as
input. An unknowing reader may thus suspect that this function actually
checks the passed-in format for consistency. While the function indeed
checks the repository format, it actually serves two purposes:
- It reads the repository's format and populates the passed-in format
with that information.
- It then indeed checks whether the format is consistent.
Rename the function to `read_and_verify_repository_format()` to clarify
its functionality. While at it, reorder the parameters so that the
format comes first to better match other functions that pass around the
format.
