When fetching into a repository, a connectivity check is first made by
check_exist_and_connected() in builtin/fetch.c that runs:

  git rev-list --objects --stdin --not --all --quiet <(list of objects)

If the client repository has many refs, this command can be slow,
regardless of the nature of the server repository or what is being
fetched. A profiler reveals that most of the time is spent in
setup_revisions() (approx. 60/63), and of the time spent in
setup_revisions(), most of it is spent in parse_object() (approx.
49/60). This is because setup_revisions() parses the target of every ref
(from "--all"), and parse_object() reads the buffer of the object.

Reading the buffer is unnecessary if the repository has a commit graph
and if the ref points to a commit (which is typically the case). This
patch uses the commit graph wherever possible; on my computer, when I
run the above command with a list of 1 object on a many-ref repository,
I get a speedup from 1.8s to 1.0s.

Another way to accomplish this effect would be to modify parse_object()
to use the commit graph if possible; however, I did not want to change
parse_object()'s current behavior of always checking the object
signature of the returned object.

This patch is still on master. Junio, let me know if you would rather
have me base it on sb/more-repo-in-api instead.

I mentioned [1] that I would unify parse_commit_in_graph_one() and
parse_commit_in_graph() so that one documentation comment could cover
all the functionality, but with the simpler API, I decided not to do
that to minimize the diff.

Change in v3: Now uses a simpler API with the algorithm suggested by
Peff in [2], except that I also retain the existing optimization that
checks if graph_pos is already set.
