[PATCH v4 0/4] Fix git-last-modified(1) bug triggered when passing a tree-ish

Recently there was a bug reported[1] passing a tree OID triggers a BUG:

    $ git last-modified fb06ce04173d47aaaa498385621cba8b8dfd7584
    BUG: builtin/last-modified.c:456: paths remaining beyond boundary in last-modified
    [1]    690163 IOT instruction (core dumped)  git last-modified

    `fb06ce04173d47aaaa498385621cba8b8dfd7584` is the tree commit id of web_src. I
    suppose this should've returned a nice error message or blank output.

Fix this bug by checking the revision argument.

Changes in v4:
- Extend the error message when revision is not a tree
- Extend the test to verify the error message when more than one
  revision is given.
- Link to v3: https://patch.msgid.link/20260116-toon-last-modified-tree-v3-0-e6ade4dc35ab@iotcl.com

Changes in v3:
- Split the change to plug the leak into a separate commit.
- Small changes to commit messages.
- Link to v2: https://patch.msgid.link/20260114-toon-last-modified-tree-v2-0-ba3b1860898f@iotcl.com

Changes in v2:
- Prepend the change with a commit that modifies the error message
  when more than one revision is given.
- Prepend another commit that removes double error message.
- Add test to ensure the command works with annotated tags too.
- Link to v1: https://patch.msgid.link/20260112-toon-last-modified-tree-v1-1-ecbc78341f76@iotcl.com
