bundle: properly clear all revision flags

The verify_bundle() method checks two things for a bundle's
prerequisites:

 1. Are these objects in the object store?
 2. Are these objects reachable from our references?

In this second question, multiple uses of verify_bundle() in the same
process can report an invalid bundle even though it is correct. The
reason is due to not clearing all of the commit marks on the commits
previously walked.

The revision walk machinery was first introduced in-process by
fb9a54150d3 (git-bundle: avoid fork() in verify_bundle(), 2007-02-22).
This implementation used "-1" as the set of flags to clear. The next
meaningful change came in 2b064697a5b (revision traversal: retire
BOUNDARY_SHOW, 2007-03-05), which introduced the PREREQ_MARK flag
instead of a flag normally controlled by the revision-walk machinery.

In 86a0a408b90 (commit: factor out
clear_commit_marks_for_object_array, 2011-10-01), the loop over the
array of commits was replaced with a new
clear_commit_marks_for_object_array(), but simultaneously the "-1" value
was replaced with "ALL_REV_FLAGS", which stopped un-setting the
PREREQ_MARK flag. This means that if multiple commits were marked by the
PREREQ_MARK in a previous run of verify_bundle(), then this loop could
terminate early due to 'i' going to zero:

	while (i && (commit = get_revision(&revs)))
		if (commit->object.flags & PREREQ_MARK)
			i--;

The flag clearing work was changed again in 63647391e6c (bundle: avoid
using the rev_info flag leak_pending, 2017-12-25), but that was only
cosmetic and did not change the behavior.

It may seem that it would be sufficient to add the PREREQ_MARK flag to
the clear_commit_marks() call in its current location. However, we
actually need to do it in the "cleanup:" step, since the first loop
checking "Are these objects in the object store?" might add the
PREREQ_MARK flag to some objects and then terminate without performing a
walk due to one missing object. By clearing the flags in all cases, we
avoid this issue when running verify_bundle() multiple times in the same
process.

Moving this loop to the cleanup step alone would cause a segfault when
running 'git bundle verify' outside of a repository, but this is because
of that error condition using "goto cleanup" when returning is perfectly
safe. Nothing has been initialized at that point, so we can return
immediately without causing any leaks.

This behavior is verified carefully by a test that will be added soon
when Git learns to download bundle lists in a 'git clone --bundle-uri'
command.
