7adf526670 merge: check config before loading commits
Now that we use generation numbers from the commit-graph, we must
ensure that all commits that exist in the commit-graph are loaded
from that file instead of from the object database. Since the
commit-graph file is only checked if core.commitGraph is true, we
must check the default config before we load any commits.

In the merge builtin, the config was checked after loading the HEAD
commit. This was due to the use of the global 'branch' when checking
merge-specific config settings.

Move the config load to be between the initialization of 'branch' and
the commit lookup.

Without this change, a fast-forward merge would hit a BUG("bad
generation skip") statement in commit.c during paint_down_to_common().
This is because the HEAD commit would be loaded with "infinite"
generation but then reached by commits with "finite" generation
numbers.

Add a test to t5318-commit-graph.sh that exercises this code path to
prevent a regression.

7547b95b4f commit-graph: implement "--append" option
Teach git-commit-graph to add all commits from the existing
commit-graph file to the file about to be written. This should be
used when adding new commits without performing garbage collection.

3d5df01b5e commit-graph: build graph from starting commits
Teach git-commit-graph to read commits from stdin when the
--stdin-commits flag is specified. Commits reachable from these
commits are added to the graph. This is a much faster way to construct
the graph than inspecting all packed objects, but is restricted to
known tips.

For the Linux repository, 700,000+ commits were added to the graph
file starting from 'master' in 7-9 seconds, depending on the number
of packfiles in the repo (1, 24, or 120).

049d51a2bb commit-graph: read only from specific pack-indexes
Teach git-commit-graph to inspect the objects only in a certain list
of pack-indexes within the given pack directory. This allows updating
the commit graph iteratively.

177722b344 commit: integrate commit graph with commit parsing
Teach Git to inspect a commit graph file to supply the contents of a
struct commit when calling parse_commit_gently(). This implementation
satisfies all post-conditions on the struct commit, including loading
parents, the root tree, and the commit date.

If core.commitGraph is false, then do not check graph files.

In test script t5318-commit-graph.sh, add output-matching conditions on
read-only graph operations.

By loading commits from the graph instead of parsing commit buffers, we
save a lot of time on long commit walks. Here are some performance
results for a copy of the Linux repository where 'master' has 678,653
reachable commits and is behind 'origin/master' by 59,929 commits.
