show-branch: use strbuf instead of static buffer
When we generate relative names (e.g., "master~20^2"), we
format the name into a static buffer, then xstrdup the
result to attach it to the commit. Since the first thing we
add into the static buffer is the already-computed name of
the child commit, the names may get longer and longer as
the traversal gets deeper, and we may eventually overflow
the fixed-size buffer.
Fix this by converting the fixed-size buffer into a dynamic
strbuf. The performance implications should be minimal, as
we end up allocating a heap copy of the name anyway (and now
we can just detach the heap copy from the strbuf).
