Apparently, gitk rereads the refs but not commits it has read already -
and the commit reading includes the notes lookup.

Unfortunately, my wish-fu is lacking. But I'll cc the master.

Paulus: None of updatecommits, reloadcommits and rereadrefs seem to
reread the notes of a commit that has been displayed already if the
notes have changed (but the other refs have not).
