[PATCH v3 04/10] odb: return newly created in-memory sources

[Patrick Steinhardt <ps@xxxxxx>]

Callers have no trivial way to obtain the newly created object database
source when adding it to the in-memory list of alternates. While not yet
needed anywhere, a subsequent commit will want to obtain that pointer.

Refactor the function to return the source to make it easily accessible.
