Derrick Stolee b84f767c8a commit-graph: add format document
Add document specifying the binary format for commit graphs. This
format allows for:

* New versions.
* New hash functions and hash lengths.
* Optional extensions.

Basic header information is followed by a binary table of contents
into "chunks" that include:

* An ordered list of commit object IDs.
* A 256-entry fanout into that list of OIDs.
* A list of metadata for the commits.
* A list of "large edges" to enable octopus merges.

The format automatically includes two parent positions for every
commit. This favors speed over space, since using only one position
per commit would cause an extra level of indirection for every merge
commit. (Octopus merges suffer from this indirection, but they are
very rare.)
