commit: use commit graph in `lookup_commit_reference_gently()`

In the preceding commit we refactored `lookup_commit_reference_gently()`
so that it doesn't parse non-commit objects anymore. This has led to a
speedup when git-receive-pack(1) accepts a shallow push into a repo
with lots of refs that point to blobs or trees.

But while this case is now faster, we still have the issue that
accepting pushes with lots of "normal" refs that point to commits are
still slow. This is mostly because we look up the commits via the object
database, and that is rather costly.

Adapt the code to use `repo_parse_commit_gently()` instead of
`parse_object()` to parse the resulting commit object. This function
knows to use the commit-graph to fill in the object, which is way more
cost efficient.

This leads to another significant speedup when accepting shallow pushes.
The following benchmark pushes a single objects from a shallow clone
into a repository with 600,000 references that all point to commits:

  Benchmark 1: git-receive-pack (rev = HEAD~)
    Time (mean ± σ):      9.179 s ±  0.031 s    [User: 8.858 s, System: 0.528 s]
    Range (min … max):    9.154 s …  9.213 s    3 runs

  Benchmark 2: git-receive-pack (rev = HEAD)
    Time (mean ± σ):      2.337 s ±  0.032 s    [User: 2.331 s, System: 0.234 s]
    Range (min … max):    2.308 s …  2.371 s    3 runs

  Summary
    git-receive-pack . </tmp/input (rev = HEAD) ran
      3.93 ± 0.05 times faster than git-receive-pack (rev = HEAD~)

Also, this again leads to a significant reduction in memory allocations.
