log: decorate HEAD with branch name under --decorate=full, too
The previous step to teach "log --decorate" to show "HEAD -> master"
instead of "HEAD, master" when showing the commit at the tip of the
'master' branch, when the 'master' branch is checked out, did not
work for "log --decorate=full".
The commands in the "log" family prepare commit decorations for all
refs upfront, and the actual string used in a decoration depends on
how load_ref_decorations() is called very early in the process. By
default, "git log --decorate" stores names with common prefixes such
as "refs/heads" stripped; "git log --decorate=full" stores the full
refnames.
When the current_pointed_by_HEAD() function has to decide if "HEAD"
points at the branch a decoration describes, however, what was
passed to load_ref_decorations() to decide to strip (or keep) such a
common prefix is long lost. This makes it impossible to reliably
tell if a decoration that stores "refs/heads/master", for example,
is the 'master' branch (under "--decorate" with prefix omitted) or
'refs/heads/master' branch (under "--decorate=full").
Keep what was passed to load_ref_decorations() in a global next to
the global variable name_decoration, and use that to decide how to
match what was read from "HEAD" and what is in a decoration.
