[PATCH v2 1/3] revision: rename bit to `do_not_die_on_missing_objects`

The bit `do_not_die_on_missing_tree` is used in revision.h to ensure the revision walker does not die when encountering a missing tree. This is currently exclusively set within `builtin/rev-list.c` to ensure the `--missing` option works with missing trees.

In the upcoming commits, we will extend `--missing` to also support missing commits. So let's rename the bit to `do_not_die_on_missing_objects`, which is object type agnostic and can be used for both trees/commits.
