Remove Payload.MessageHead error return and simplify implementations
None of the new implementations of Payload.MessageHead can return an error, so
don't do it. The new implementations place more reliance on the author field of
the commit to describe the "who", so the commit heads have more room to describe
the "what".

Completely refactor naming of everything, in light of new SPEC
Writing the SPEC shed some light on just how weakly a lot of concepts, like
"commit", had been defined, and prompted the delineation of a lot of things
along specific lines (commit vs payload, repo vs project). This commit makes the
code reflect the SPEC much better in quite a few ways:
* Repo is now Project
* Commit is now Payload
* GitCommit is now just Commit
* Hash is now Fingerprint
* A lot of minor fields got renamed
* All the XXXInterface types are now just XXX, and their old XXX type is now
XXXUnion.
More than likely there's still some comments and variable names that have
slipped passed, but overall I feel like I got most of the changes.
