graph: tidy up display of left-skewed merges

Currently, when we display a merge whose first parent is already present
in a column to the left of the merge commit, we display the first parent
as a vertical pipe `|` in the GRAPH_POST_MERGE line and then immediately
enter the GRAPH_COLLAPSING state. The first-parent line tracks to the
left and all the other parent lines follow it; this creates a "kink" in
those lines:

        | *---.
        | |\ \ \
        |/ / / /
        | | | *

This change tidies the display of such commits such that if the first
parent appears to the left of the merge, we render it as a `/` and the
second parent as a `|`. This reduces the horizontal and vertical space
needed to render the merge, and makes the resulting lines easier to
read.

        | *-.
        |/|\ \
        | | | *

If the first parent is separated from the merge by several columns, a
horizontal line is drawn in a similar manner to how the GRAPH_COLLAPSING
state displays the line.

        | | | *-.
        | |_|/|\ \
        |/| | | | *

This effect is applied to both "normal" two-parent merges, and to
octopus merges. It also reduces the vertical space needed for pre-commit
lines, as the merge occupies one less column than usual.

        Before:         After:

        | *             | *
        | |\            | |\
        | | \           | * \
        | |  \          |/|\ \
        | *-. \
        | |\ \ \
