Phillip Wood e47c6cafcb commit: move print_commit_summary() to libgit ...

Move print_commit_summary() from builtin/commit.c to sequencer.c so it
can be shared with other commands. The function is modified by
changing the last argument to a flag so callers can specify whether
they want to show the author date in addition to specifying if this is
an initial commit.

If the sequencer dies in print_commit_summary() (which can only happen
when cherry-picking or reverting) then neither the todo list nor the
abort safety file are updated to reflect the commit that was just
made. print_commit_summary() can die if:

 - The commit that was just created cannot be found or parsed.

 - HEAD cannot be resolved either because some other process is
   updating it (which is bad news in the middle of a cherry-pick) or
   because it is corrupt.

 - log_tree_commit() cannot read some objects.

In all those cases dying will leave the sequencer in a sane state for
aborting; 'git cherry-pick --abort' will rewind HEAD to the last
successful commit before there was a problem with HEAD or the object
database. If the user somehow fixes the problem and runs 'git
cherry-pick --continue' then the sequencer will try and pick the same
commit again which may or may not be what the user wants depending on
what caused print_commit_summary() to die. If print_commit_summary()
returned an error instead then update_abort_safety_file() would try to
resolve HEAD which may or may not be successful. If it is successful
then running 'git rebase --abort' would not rewind HEAD to the last
successful commit which is not what we want.
