"git rebase --fork-point master" used to work OK, as it internally
called "git merge-base --fork-point" that knew how to handle short
refname and dwim it to the full refname before calling the
underlying get_fork_point() function.

This is no longer true after the command was rewritten in C, as its
internall call made directly to get_fork_point() does not dwim a
short ref.

Move the "dwim the refname argument to the full refname" logic that
is used in "git merge-base" to the underlying get_fork_point()
function, so that the other caller of the function in the
implementation of "git rebase" behaves the same way to fix this
regression.
