builtin/commit: refactor --trailer logic

git-commit adds user trailers to the commit message by passing its
`--trailer` arguments to a child process running `git-interpret-trailers
--in-place`. This logic is broadly useful, not just for git-commit but
for other commands constructing message bodies (e.g. git-tag).

Let's move this logic from git-commit to a new function in the trailer
API, so that it can be re-used in other commands.
