parse_commit_buffer: tighten checks while parsing
This tightens the parsing of a commit object in a couple of ways. - The "tree " header must end with a LF (earlier we did not check this condition). - Make sure parsing of timestamp on the "committer " header does not go beyond the buffer, even when (1) the "author " header does not end with a LF (this means that the commit object is malformed and lacks the committer information) or (2) the "committer " header does not have ">" that is the end of the e-mail address, or (3) the "committer " header does not end with a LF. We however still keep the existing behaviour to return a parsed commit object even when non-structural headers such as committer and author are malformed, so that tools that need to look at commits to clean up a history with such broken commits can still get at the structural data (i.e. the parents chain and the tree object).
