commit-reach(paint_down_to_common): prepare for handling shallow commits

Browse Source 
When `git fetch --update-shallow` needs to test for commit ancestry, it
can naturally run into a missing object (e.g. if it is a parent of a
shallow commit). For the purpose of `--update-shallow`, this needs to be
treated as if the child commit did not even have that parent, i.e. the
commit history needs to be clamped.

For all other scenarios, clamping the commit history is actually a bug,
as it would hide repository corruption (for an analysis regarding
shallow and partial clones, see the analysis further down).

Add a flag to optionally ask the function to ignore missing commits, as
`--update-shallow` needs it to, while detecting missing objects as a
repository corruption error by default.

This flag is needed, and cannot be replaced by `is_repository_shallow()`
to indicate that situation, because that function would return 0 in the
`--update-shallow` scenario: There is not actually a `shallow` file in
that scenario, as demonstrated e.g. by t5537.10 ("add new shallow root
with receive.updateshallow on") and t5538.4 ("add new shallow root with
receive.updateshallow on").

Note: shallow commits' parents are set to `NULL` internally already,
therefore there is no need to special-case shallow repositories here, as
the merge-base logic will not try to access parent commits of shallow
commits.

Likewise, partial clones aren't an issue either: If a commit is missing
during the revision walk in the merge-base logic, it is fetched via
`promisor_remote_get_direct()`. And not only the single missing commit
object: Due to the way the "promised" objects are fetched (in
`fetch_objects()` in `promisor-remote.c`, using `fetch
--filter=blob:none`), there is no actual way to fetch a single commit
object, as the remote side will pass that commit OID to `pack-objects
--revs [...]` which in turn passes it to `rev-list` which interprets
this as a commit _range_ instead of a single object. Therefore, in
partial clones (unless they are shallow in addition), all commits
reachable from a commit that is in the local object database are also
present in that local database.
