commit-graph: add 'verify' subcommand
If the commit-graph file becomes corrupt, we need a way to verify
that its contents match the object database. In the manner of
'git fsck' we will implement a 'git commit-graph verify' subcommand
to report all issues with the file.
Add the 'verify' subcommand to the 'commit-graph' builtin and its
documentation. The subcommand is currently a no-op except for
loading the commit-graph into memory, which may trigger run-time
errors that would be caught by normal use. Add a simple test that
ensures the command returns a zero error code.
If no commit-graph file exists, this is an acceptable state. Do
not report any errors.
