[PATCH 00/12] Die commit->util, die!

["Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy" <pclouds@gmail.com>]

There's not much to write here. It's basically a copy from 12/12:

This 'util' pointer can be used for many different purposes,
controlled in different ways. Some are not even contained in a command
code, but buried deep in common code with no clue who will use it and
how. For example, if revs.show_source is set, then it's used for
storing path name, but if you happen to call get_merge_parent() then
some 'util' may end up storing another thing.

The move to using commit-slab gives us a much better picture of how
some piece of data is associated with a commit and what for. Since
nobody uses 'util' pointer anymore, we can retire it so that nobody will
abuse it again. commit-slab will be the way forward for associating
data to a commit.

As a side benefit, this shrinks struct commit by 8 bytes (on 64-bit
architecture) which should help reduce memory usage for reachability
test a bit. This is also what commit-slab is invented for [1].
