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.
