commit-graph: add --changed-paths option to write subcommand

Add --changed-paths option to git commit-graph write. This option will
allow users to compute information about the paths that have changed
between a commit and its first parent, and write it into the commit graph
file. If the option is passed to the write subcommand we set the
COMMIT_GRAPH_WRITE_BLOOM_FILTERS flag and pass it down to the
commit-graph logic.

With the `--split` option, write the commit-graph as a chain of multiple
commit-graph files stored in `<dir>/info/commit-graphs`. The new commits
not already in the commit-graph are added in a new "tip" file. This file
