bisect--helper: `bisect_reset` shell function in C

Reimplement `bisect_reset` shell function in C and add a `--bisect-reset`
subcommand to `git bisect--helper` to call it from git-bisect.sh .

Using `bisect_reset` subcommand is a temporary measure to port shell
functions to C so as to use the existing test suite. As more functions
are ported, this subcommand would be retired but its implementation will
be called by some other method.

Note: --bisect-clean-state subcommand has not been retired as there are
still a function namely `bisect_start()` which still uses this
subcommand.
