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).
