sha1_name.c: introduce get_sha1_committish()
Many callers know that the user meant to name a committish by syntactical positions where the object name appears. Calling this function allows the machinery to disambiguate shorter-than-unique abbreviated object names between committish and others. Note that this does NOT error out when the named object is not a committish. It is merely to give a hint to the disambiguation machinery. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
