[PATCH v7 06/13] bisect--helper: reimplement `bisect_next` and `bisect_auto_next` shell functions in C

In-Reply-To
<20200831105043.97665-1-mirucam@gmail.com>
From: Pranit Bauva <pranit.bauva@gmail.com>

Reimplement the `bisect_next()` and the `bisect_auto_next()` shell functions in C and add the subcommands to `git bisect--helper` to call them from git-bisect.sh .

bisect_auto_next() function returns an enum bisect_error type as whole `git bisect` can exit with an error code when bisect_next() does.

Using `--bisect-next` and `--bisect-auto-next` subcommands is a temporary measure to port shell function to C so as to use the existing test suite. As more functions are ported, `--bisect-auto-next` subcommand will be retired and will be called by some other methods.
