bisect--helper: finish porting `bisect_start()` to C

Add the subcommand to `git bisect--helper` and call it from
git-bisect.sh.

With the conversion of `bisect_auto_next()` from shell to C in a
previous commit, `bisect_start()` can now be fully ported to C.

So let's complete the `--bisect-start` subcommand of
`git bisect--helper` so that it fully implements `bisect_start()`,
and let's use this subcommand in `git-bisect.sh` instead of
`bisect_start()`.

Note that the `eval` in the changed line of `git-bisect.sh` cannot be
dropped: it is necessary because the `rev` and the `tail`
variables may contain multiple, quoted arguments that need to be
passed to `bisect--helper` (without the quotes, naturally).
