A common operation when editing the commit history is to drop a specific
commit from the history entirely, but this operation is not currently
covered by git-history(1).
A couple of noteworthy bits:
- This is the first git-history(1) command that will ultimately result
in changes to both the index and the working tree. We thus have to
add logic to merge resulting changes into those.
- It is still not possible to replay merge commits, so this limitation
is inherited for the new "drop" command.
- For now we refuse to drop root commits. While we _can_ indeed drop
root commits in the general case, there are edge cases where the
resulting history would become completely empty. This is thus left
to a subsequent patch series.
Other than that, most of the logic is rather straight-forward as we can
continue to build on the preexisting logic in git-history(1) for most of
the part.

The function `handle_reference_updates()` is used by git-history(1) to
update all references that refer to commits that have been rewritten. As
such, it performs two steps:
- It gathers the references that need to be updated in the first
place.
- It prepares and commits the reference transaction.
In a subsequent commit we'll want to handle those two steps separately.
Prepare for this by splitting up the function into two.

In 652bd0211d (rebase: use 'skip_cache_tree_update' option, 2022-11-10),
we updated `reset_working_tree()` to stop updating the index tree cache.
This was done as a performance optimization: the function is only called
by "sequencer.c" and "rebase.c", both of which assume a clean index
before they perform their operation, so we know that the end result will
be a clean index, too. Consequently, we can skip recomputing the cache
as we can instead use `prime_cache_tree()` directly.
In a subsequent commit we're about to add a new caller though where the
assumption doesn't hold anymore: the index may be dirty before calling
`reset_working_tree()`, and consequently we cannot prime the cache with
a given tree anymore as the index and tree will mismatch.
Adapt the logic so that we only skip the cache tree update in case we're
doing a hard reset. While we could introduce logic that only skips the
update in case the incoming index was dirty already, that doesn't really
feel worth it: after all, the mentioned commit says itself that the
performance improvement was negligible anyway.

When calling `reset_working_tree()` we automatically derive the commit
that the callers wants to move from by reading the HEAD commit. Some
callers may already have resolved it, or they may want to move from a
different commit that doesn't match HEAD.
Introduce a new `oid_from` option that lets the caller specify the
commit.

In a subsequent commit we'll introduce a new caller to
`reset_working_tree()` that really only wants to update the index and
working tree, without updating any references. Introduce a new flag that
makes the caller opt in to updating HEAD and adapt all callers to set
that flag.
Note that in a previous iteration we instead introduced a flag that made
callers opt out of updating any references. This was somewhat awkward
though because we already have the `UPDATE_ORIG_HEAD` flag, so the
result was somewhat inconsistent.

The flags passed to `reset_working_tree()` are declared as defines. This
has fallen a bit out of practice nowadays, where we instead prefer to
use enums. Furthermore, the prefix of those flags does not match the
function name anymore after the rename in the preceding commit.
Adapt the code to follow modern best practices and adapt the flag names.

In a subsequent commit we're about to adapt `reset_head()` so that the
reference update to HEAD is optional, only. At this point the function
starts to feel misnamed, as it doesn't necessarily have anything to do
with the HEAD reference anymore. The gist of the function then is that
we reset the working tree to a specific new commit, updating both the
index and the checked-out files.
Rename it to `reset_working_tree()` to better reflect that.
Note that we don't adjust the flags yet. This will happen in a
subsequent commit.

In `repo_read_index_unmerged()` we read the index and then drop any

that can act on an arbitrary index.
