[PATCH 1/2] receive-pack: use find_commit_header() in check_cert_push_options()

Use the public function find_commit_header() instead of find_header() to simplify the code. This is possible and safe because we're operating on a strbuf, which is always NUL-terminated, so there is no risk of running over the end of the buffer. It cannot contain NUL within the buffer, as it is built using strbuf_addstr(), only.

The string comparison becomes more complicated because we need to check for NUL explicitly after comparing the length-limited option, but on the flip side we don't need to clean up allocations or track the remaining buffer length.
