[PATCHv4 11/21] builtin/notes.c: Refactor creation of notes commits.

[Johan Herland <johan@herland.net>]

Create new function create_notes_commit() which is slightly more general than
commit_notes() (accepts multiple commit parents and does not auto-update the
notes ref). This function will be used by the notes-merge functionality in
future patches.

Also rewrite builtin/notes.c:commit_notes() to reuse this new function.
