graph: drop assert() for merge with two collapsing parents

When "git log --graph" shows a merge commit that has two collapsing
lines, like:

    | | | | *
    | |_|_|/|
    |/| | |/
    | | |/|
    | |/| |
    | * | |
    * | | |

we trigger an assert():

        graph.c:1228: graph_output_collapsing_line: Assertion
                      `graph->mapping[i - 3] == target' failed.

The assert was introduced by eaf158f8 ("graph API: Use horizontal
lines for more compact graphs", 2009-04-21), which is quite old.
This assert is trying to say that when we complete a horizontal
line with a single slash, it is because we have reached our target.

It is actually the _second_ collapsing line that hits this assert.
The reason we are in this code path is because we are collapsing
the first line, and in that case we are hitting our target now
that the horizontal line is complete. However, the second line
cannot be a horizontal line, so it will collapse without horizontal
lines. In this case, it is inappropriate to assert that we have
reached our target, as we need to continue for another column
before reaching the target. Dropping the assert is safe here.

The new behavior in 0f0f389f12 (graph: tidy up display of
left-skewed merges, 2019-10-15) caused the behavior change that
made this assertion failure possible. In addition to making the
assert possible, it also changed how multiple edges collapse.

In a larger example, the current code will output a collapse
as follows:

	| | | | | | *
	| |_|_|_|_|/|\
	|/| | | | |/ /
	| | | | |/| /
	| | | |/| |/
	| | |/| |/|
	| |/| |/| |
	| | |/| | |
	| | * | | |

However, the intended collapse should allow multiple horizontal lines
as follows:

	| | | | | | *
	| |_|_|_|_|/|\
	|/| | | | |/ /
	| | |_|_|/| /
	| |/| | | |/
	| | | |_|/|
	| | |/| | |
	| | * | | |

This behavior is not corrected by this change, but is noted for a later
update.
