I haven't fully checked if filter.abbrev is set correctly, but I noticed the output format is formulated without taking the value of filter.abbrev into account at all, so this is an attempt to fix that omission.

I also notice that filter.abbrev is _ONLY_ used by builtin/branch.c and the actual ref-filter code does not have to know anything about it.

We probably should eliminate filter.abbrev field from the structure and use a regular variable in builtin/branch.c and use it to pass the result of command line parsing from cmd_branch() down to build_format() as an argument.

But that is outside the scope of regression fix.
