pack-bitmap-write: fill bitmap with commit history

The current implementation of bitmap_writer_build() creates a
reachability bitmap for every walked commit. After computing a bitmap
for a commit, those bits are pushed to an in-progress bitmap for its
children.

fill_bitmap_commit() assumes the bits corresponding to objects
reachable from the parents of a commit are already set. This means that
when visiting a new commit, we only have to walk the objects reachable
between it and any of its parents.

A future change to bitmap_writer_build() will relax this condition so
not all parents have their bits set. Prepare for that by having
'fill_bitmap_commit()' walk parents until reaching commits whose bits
are already set. Then, walk the trees for these commits as well.

This has no functional change with the current implementation of
bitmap_writer_build().
