[GSoC Patch 1/3] commit: introduce helpers for generation slab

[Abhishek Kumar <abhishekkumar8222@gmail.com>]

The struct member generation refers to "generation number" (or more
broadly, a reachablity index value) used by commit-graph to reduce time
taken to walk commits. However, generation is not useful in other
contexts and bloats the struct.

Let's move it to a commit-slab and shrink the struct by four bytes.
