The can_all_from_reach_with_flags() algorithm is currently quadratic in
the worst case, because it calls the reachable() method for every 'from'
without tracking which commits have already been walked or which can
already reach a commit in 'to'.
Rewrite the algorithm to walk each commit a constant number of times.
We also add some optimizations that should work for the main consumer of
this method: fetch negotitation (haves/wants).
The first step includes using a depth-first-search (DFS) from each
'from' commit, sorted by ascending generation number. We do not walk
beyond the minimum generation number or the minimum commit date. This
DFS is likely to be faster than the existing reachable() method because
we expect previous ref values to be along the first-parent history.
If we find a target commit, then we mark everything in the DFS stack as
a RESULT. This expands the set of targets for the other 'from' commits.
We also mark the visited commits using 'assign_flag' to prevent re-
walking the same commits.
We still need to clear our flags at the end, which is why we will have a
total of three visits to each commit.
Performance was measured on the Linux repository using
'test-tool reach can_all_from_reach'. The input included rows seeded by
tag values. The "small" case included X-rows as v4.[0-9]* and Y-rows as
v3.[0-9]*. This mimics a (very large) fetch that says "I have all major
v3 releases and want all major v4 releases." The "large" case included
X-rows as "v4.*" and Y-rows as "v3.*". This adds all release-candidate
tags to the set, which does not greatly increase the number of objects
that are considered, but does increase the number of 'from' commits,
demonstrating the quadratic nature of the previous code.
Small Case:
Before: 1.52 s
After: 0.26 s
Large Case:
Before: 3.50 s
After: 0.27 s
Note how the time increases between the two cases in the two versions.
The new code increases relative to the number of commits that need to be
walked, but not directly relative to the number of 'from' commits.

The can_all_from_reach_with_flags method is used by ok_to_give_up in
upload-pack.c to see if we have done enough negotiation during a fetch.
This method is intentionally created to preserve state between calls to
assist with stateful negotiation, such as over SSH.
To make this method testable, add a new can_all_from_reach method that
does the initial setup and final tear-down. We will later use this
method in production code. Call the method from 'test-tool reach' for
now.
Since this is a many-to-many reachability query, add a new type of input
to the 'test-tool reach' input format. Lines "Y:<committish>" create a
list of commits to be the reachability targets from the commits in the
'X' list. In the context of fetch negotiation, the 'X' commits are the
'want' commits and the 'Y' commits are the 'have' commits.

There are several commit walks in the codebase. Group them together into
a new commit-reach.c file and corresponding header. After we group these
walks into one place, we can reduce duplicate logic by calling
equivalent methods.
The can_all_from_reach_with_flags method is used in a stateful way by
upload-pack.c. The parameters are very flexible, so we will be able to
use its commit walking logic for many other callers.

All methods are direct moves, except we also make the commit_contains()
method public so its consumers in ref-filter.c can still call it. We can
also test this method in a test-tool in a later commit.

The ref_newer() method is used by 'git push -f' to check if a force-push
is necessary. By making the method public, we make it possible to test
the method directly without setting up an envieronment where a 'git
push' call makes sense.

The method declarations in commit.h are not touched by this commit and
will be moved in a following commit. Many consumers need to point to
commit-reach.h and that would bloat this commit.
