test-lib.sh: introduce test_commit() and test_merge() helpers
Often we just need to add a commit with a given (short) name, that will
be tagged with the same name. Now, relatively complicated graphs can be
constructed easily and in a clear fashion:
test_commit A &&
test_commit B &&
git checkout A &&
test_commit C &&
test_merge D B
will construct this graph:
A - B
\ \
C - D
For simplicity, files whose name is the lower case version of the commit
message (to avoid a warning about ambiguous names) will be committed, with
the corresponding commit messages as contents.
If you need to provide a different file/different contents, you can use
the more explicit form
test_commit $MESSAGE $FILENAME $CONTENTS
