ui-log: Implement support for commit graphs

Teach CGit to print an ASCII art commit graph to the left of the commit
message, similar to 'git log --graph'. The graph adds extra lines (table
rows) to the log when needed to add/remove/shuffle edges in the graph.

When 'showmsg' is enabled, the graph is automatically padded to account
for the extra lines added by the commit message/notes.

This feature is controlled by a new config variable: "enable-commit-graph"
(disabled by default), and individual repos can control it by setting
"repo.enable-commit-graph".
