[PATCH v2] t4205: correctly test %(describe:abbrev=...)

[Kousik Sanagavarapu <five231003@gmail.com>]

The pretty format %(describe:abbrev=<number>) tells describe to use
at least <number> digits of the oid to generate the human-readable
format of the commit-ish.

There are three things to test here:
  - Check that we can describe a commit that is not tagged (that is,
    for example our HEAD is at least one commit ahead of some reachable
    commit which is tagged) with at least <number> digits of the oid
    being used for describing it.

  - Check that when using such a commit-ish, we always use at least
    <number> digits of the oid to describe it.

  - Check that we can describe a tag. This just gives the name of the
    tag irrespective of abbrev (abbrev doesn't make sense here).

Do this, instead of the current test which only tests the last case.

    -    The pretty format %(describe:abbrev=<number>) tells describe to
         use only
    -    <number> characters of the oid to generate the human-readable
         format of
    -    the commit-ish.

    -    This is not apparent in the test for %(describe:abbrev=...)
         because we
    -    directly tag HEAD and use that, in which case the
         human-readable format
    -    is just the tag name. So, create a new commit and use that
         instead.
