gitk: Parse arbitrary commit-ish in SHA1 field
We only accepted either SHA1s or heads/tags that have been read. This meant the user could not, e.g., enter HEAD to go back to the current commit. This adds code to call out to git rev-parse --verify if all other methods of interpreting the string the user entered fail. (git-rev-parse alone is not enough as we really want a single revision.) The error paths change slighly, because we now know from the rev-parse invocation whether the expression was valid at all. The previous "unknown" path is now only triggered if the revision does exist, but is not in the current view display.
