[PATCH 2/4] name-rev: allow converting the exact object name at the tip of a ref

"git name-rev" is supposed to convert 40-hex object names into strings that name the same objects based on refs, that can be fed to "git rev-parse" to get the same object names back, so

    $ git rev-parse v1.8.3 v1.8.3^0 | git name-rev --stdin
    8af06057d0c31a24e8737ae846ac2e116e8bafb9
    edca4152560522a431a51fc0a06147fc680b5b18 (tags/v1.8.3^0)

has to have "^0" at the end, as "edca41" is a commit, not the tag that references it.

The command however did not bother to see if the object is at the tip of some ref, and failed to convert a tag object.

Teach it to show this instead:
    $ git rev-parse v1.8.3 v1.8.3^0 | git name-rev --stdin
    8af06057d0c31a24e8737ae846ac2e116e8bafb9 (tags/v1.8.3)
    edca4152560522a431a51fc0a06147fc680b5b18 (tags/v1.8.3^0)
