[PATCH 2/2] receive-pack: use find_commit_header() in check_nonce()

From
René Scharfe <l.s.r@web.de>

Use the public function find_commit_header() and remove find_header(), as it becomes unused. This is safe and appropriate because we pass the NUL-terminated payload buffer to check_nonce() instead of its start and length. The underlying strbuf push_cert cannot contain NULs, as it is built using strbuf_addstr(), only.

We no longer need to call strlen(), as find_commit_header() returns the length of nonce already.

Formatted with -U5 for easier review.
Removing find_header_mem(), which basically becomes unused, left as an
exercise for the reader. ;)
