Remove explicit inheritance from object

Within the git module.

In Python 2, it was necessary to inherit from object to have a
new-style class. In Python 3, all classes are new-style classes,
and inheritance from object is implied.

Usually, removing explicit inheritance from object is only a small
clarity benefit while modernizing Python codebases. However, in
GitPython, the benefit is greater, because it is possible to
confuse object (the root of the Python class hierarchy) with
Object (the root of the GitPython subhierarchy of classes
representing things in the git object model).
