[PATCH 4/4] log and rev-list: Improve --graph output when commits have been pruned

This change automatically enables parent rewriting when --graph is specified. This makes the graph output look much nicer when commit pruning is enabled.

The existing rev_info "parents" flag has been split into two flags: "rewrite_parents" causes the parents to be rewritten, while "print_parents" causes the log and rev-list commands to print the parents. The --parents option now enables both rewrite_parents and print_parents, while --graph enables only rewrite_parents.
