rev-list: add commit object support in --missing option

The `--missing` object option in rev-list currently works only with
missing blobs/trees. For missing commits the revision walker fails with
a fatal error.

Let's extend the functionality of `--missing` option to also support
commit objects. This is done by adding a `missing_objects` field to
`rev_info`. This field is an `oidset` to which we'll add the missing
commits as we encounter them. The revision walker will now continue the
traversal and call `show_commit()` even for missing commits. In rev-list
we can then check if the commit is a missing commit and call the
existing code for parsing `--missing` objects.

A scenario where this option would be used is to find the boundary
objects between different object directories. Consider a repository with
a main object directory (GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY) and one or more alternate
object directories (GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES). In such a
repository, using the `--missing=print` option while disabling the
alternate object directory allows us to find the boundary objects
between the main and alternate object directory.
