[PATCH 1/1] blame: remove unnecessary use of get_commit_info()

When `git blame --color-by-age`, the determine_line_heat() is called to select how to color the output based on the commit author's date. It uses the get_commit_info() to parse the information into a `commit_info` structure, however, this is actually unnecessary because the determine_line_heat() caller also does the same.

Instead, let's change determine_line_heat() to take a `commit_info` structure and remove the internal call to get_commit_info() thus cleaning up and micro-optimizing the code path.
