blob: don't recomment using git_buf_grow - #3245

Conversation
We currently recommend using `git_buf_grow` in order to make a buffer make an owned copy of the memory it points to. This is not behaviour we should encourage, so remove this recommendation. The function itself is not changed, as we need to remain compatible, but it will be changed not to allow usage on borrowed buffers.
