René Scharfe d6ec08788e commit: convert pop_most_recent_commit() to prio_queue
pop_most_recent_commit() calls commit_list_insert_by_date() for parent
commits, which is itself called in a loop.  This can lead to quadratic
complexity if there are many merges.  Replace the commit_list with a
prio_queue to ensure logarithmic worst case complexity and convert all
three users.

Add a performance test that exercises one of them using a pathological
history that consists of 50% merges and 50% root commits to demonstrate
the speedup:

Test                          v2.50.1           HEAD
----------------------------------------------------------------------
1501.2: rev-parse ':/65535'   2.48(2.47+0.00)   0.20(0.19+0.00) -91.9%

Alas, sane histories don't benefit from the conversion much, and
traversing Git's own history takes a 1% performance hit on my machine:

   $ hyperfine -w3 -L git ./git_2.50.1,./git '{git} rev-parse :/^Initial.revision'
   Benchmark 1: ./git_2.50.1 rev-parse :/^Initial.revision
     Time (mean ± σ):      1.071 s ±  0.004 s    [User: 1.052 s, System: 0.017 s]
     Range (min … max):    1.067 s …  1.078 s    10 runs

   Benchmark 2: ./git rev-parse :/^Initial.revision
     Time (mean ± σ):      1.079 s ±  0.003 s    [User: 1.060 s, System: 0.017 s]
     Range (min … max):    1.074 s …  1.083 s    10 runs

   Summary
     ./git_2.50.1 rev-parse :/^Initial.revision ran
       1.01 ± 0.00 times faster than ./git rev-parse :/^Initial.revision

# Creates lots of merges to make history traversal costly. In
# particular it creates 2^($max_level-1)-1 2-way merges on top of
# 2^($max_level-1) root commits. E.g., the commit history looks like
# this for a $max_level of 3:
#
# _1_
# / \
# 2 3
# / \ / \
# 4 5 6 7
#
# The numbers are the fast-import marks, which also are the commit
# messages. 1 is the HEAD commit and a merge, 2 and 3 are also merges,
# 4-7 are the root commits.
