When naming commits, stop walking the parent chain as soon as we find
a commit that already has a name. The parent chain of that commit will
be walked later on in any case (or may even have been walked already).
This avoids O(n^2) behavior; on a tree where show-branch displays 6800
commits, the total run time drops from 77 seconds to 5 seconds.

The core function used in show-branch, join_revs(), was supposed
to be exactly the same algorithm as merge_bases(), except that
it was a version enhanced for use with more than two heads.
However, it needed to mark and keep a list of all the commits it
has seen, because it needed them for its semi-graphical output.
The function to implement this list, mark_seen(), stupidly used
insert_by_date(), when it did not need to keep the list sorted
during its processing. This made "show-branch --merge-base"
more than 20x slower compared to "merge-base --all" in some
cases (e.g. between b5032a5 and 48ce8b0 in the Linux 2.6 kernel
archive). The performance of "show-branch --independent"
suffered from the same reason.
This patch sorts the resulting list after the list traversal
just once to fix these problems.

Every single user actually wanted this only for commit objects, and we
have no reason to waste space on it for other object types. So just move
the structure member from the low-level "struct object" into the "struct
commit".
This leaves the commit object the same size, and removes one unnecessary
pointer from all other object allocations.
This shrinks memory usage (still at a fairly hefty half-gig, admittedly)
of "git-rev-list --all --objects" on the mozilla repo by another 5% in my
tests.

This shrinks "struct object" by a small amount, by getting rid of the
"struct type *" pointer and replacing it with a 3-bit bitfield instead.
In addition, we merge the bitfields and the "flags" field, which
incidentally should also remove a useless 4-byte padding from the object
when in 64-bit mode.
Now, our "struct object" is still too damn large, but it's now less
obviously bloated, and of the remaining fields, only the "util" (which is
not used by most things) is clearly something that should be eventually
discarded.
This shrinks the "git-rev-list --all" memory use by about 2.5% on the
kernel archive (and, perhaps more importantly, on the larger mozilla
archive). That may not sound like much, but I suspect it's more on a
64-bit platform.
There are other remaining inefficiencies (the parent lists, for example,
probably have horrible malloc overhead), but this was pretty obvious.
Most of the patch is just changing the comparison of the "type" pointer
from one of the constant string pointers to the appropriate new TYPE_xxx
small integer constant.
