[PATCH v9 4/6] bisect--helper: reimplement `bisect_autostart` shell function in C

From: Pranit Bauva <pranit.bauva@gmail.com>

Reimplement the `bisect_autostart()` shell function in C and add the C implementation from `bisect_next()` which was previously left uncovered.

Add `--bisect-autostart` subcommand to be called from git-bisect.sh. Using `--bisect-autostart` subcommand is a temporary measure to port the shell function to C so as to use the existing test suite. As more functions are ported, this subcommand will be retired and bisect_autostart() will be called directly by `bisect_state()`.

Change behavior of shell script that returned success when user aborted the bisection.
