Merge branch 'nd/commit-util-to-slab'

The in-core "commit" object had an all-purpose "void *util" field,
which was tricky to use especially in library-ish part of the
code.  All of the existing uses of the field has been migrated to a
more dedicated "commit-slab" mechanism and the field is eliminated.

* nd/commit-util-to-slab:
  commit.h: delete 'util' field in struct commit
  merge: use commit-slab in merge remote desc instead of commit->util
  log: use commit-slab in prepare_bases() instead of commit->util
  show-branch: note about its object flags usage
  show-branch: use commit-slab for commit-name instead of commit->util
  name-rev: use commit-slab for rev-name instead of commit->util
  bisect.c: use commit-slab for commit weight instead of commit->util
  revision.c: use commit-slab for show_source
  sequencer.c: use commit-slab to associate todo items to commits
  sequencer.c: use commit-slab to mark seen commits
  shallow.c: use commit-slab for commit depth instead of commit->util
  describe: use commit-slab for commit names instead of commit->util
  blame: use commit-slab for blame suspects instead of commit->util
  commit-slab: support shared commit-slab
  commit-slab.h: code split
