commit-graph: return 64-bit generation number

In a preparatory step for introducing corrected commit dates, let's
return timestamp_t values from commit_graph_generation(), use
timestamp_t for local variables and define GENERATION_NUMBER_INFINITY
as (2 ^ 63 - 1) instead.

We rename GENERATION_NUMBER_MAX to GENERATION_NUMBER_V1_MAX to
represent the largest topological level we can store in the commit data
chunk.

With corrected commit dates implemented, we will have two such *_MAX
variables to denote the largest offset and largest topological level
that can be stored.
