Previously, merge commits were printed with 'M' instead of '*'. This
had the potential to confuse users when not all parents of the merge
commit were included in the log output.
As Junio has pointed out, merge commits can almost always be easily
identified from the log message, anyway.

This change teaches the graph API that only the first parent of each
commit is interesting when "--first-parent" was specified.
This change also consolidates the graph parent walking logic into two
new internal functions, first_interesting_parent() and
next_interesting_parent(). A simpler fix would have been to simply
break at the end of the 2 existing for loops when
graph->revs->first_parent_only is set. However, this change seems
nicer, especially if we ever need to add any new loops over the parent
list in the future.

When an octopus merge is printed, several lines are printed before it to
move over existing branch lines to its right. This is needed to make
room for the children of the octopus merge. For example:
| | | |
| | \ \
| | \ \
| | \ \
| M---. \ \
| |\ \ \ \ \
However, this step isn't necessary if there are no branch lines to the
right of the octopus merge. Therefore, skip this step when it is not
needed, to avoid printing extra lines that don't really serve any
purpose.

This change improves the way merge commits are displayed, to eliminate a
few visual artifacts. Previously, merge commits were displayed as:
| M \
| |\ |
As pointed out by Teemu Likonen, this didn't look nice if the rightmost
branch line was displayed as '\' on the previous line, as it then
appeared to have an extra space in it:
| |\
| M \
| |\ |
This change updates the code so that branch lines to the right of merge
commits are printed slightly differently depending on how the previous
line was displayed:
| |\ | | | | | /
| M \ | M | | M |
| |\ \ | |\ \ | |\ \

Now get_revision() sorts the boundary commits when topo_order is set.
Since sort_in_topological_order() takes a struct commit_list, it first
places the boundary commits into revs->commits.

Previously the graphing API wasn't aware of the revs->boundary flag, and
it always assumed that commits marked UNINTERESTING would not be
displayed. As a result, the boundary commits were printed at the end of
the log output, but they didn't have any branch lines connecting them to
their children in the graph.
There was also another bug in the get_revision() code that caused
graph_update() to be called twice on the first boundary commit. This
caused the graph API to think that a commit had been skipped, and print
a "..." line in the output.

With the --graph option, the graph already outputs 'o' instead of '*'
for boundary commits. Make it emit '<' or '>' when --left-right is
specified.
(This change also disables the '^' prefix for UNINTERESTING commits.
The graph code currently doesn't print anything special for these
commits, since it assumes no UNINTERESTING, non-BOUNDARY commits are
displayed. This is potentially a bug if UNINTERESTING non-BOUNDARY
commits can actually be displayed via some code path.)

Previously, the graphing code printed lines coming out of a merge commit
for all of its parents, even if some of them were uninteresting. Now it
only prints lines for interesting commits.
For example, for a merge commit where only the first parent is
interesting, the code now prints:
* merge commit
* interesting child
instead of:
M merge commit
|\
* interesting child

The graphing code had a bug that caused it to output branch lines
incorrectly after ignoring an uninteresting commit. When computing how
to match up the branch lines from the current commit to the next one, it
forgot to take into account that it needed to initially start with 2
empty spaces where the missing commit would have gone.
So, instead of drawing this,
| * | <- Commit with uninteresting parent
| /
* |
It used to incorrectly draw this:
| * | <- Commit with uninteresting parent
* |

This change improves the calculation of the amount of horizontal
padding, so that there is always exactly 1 space of padding.
Previously, most commits had 3 spaces of padding, but commits that
didn't have any children in the graph had only 1 space of padding.
