Improve git_changelog as per discussion with Robert Haas.
1. Resurrect the behavior where old commits on master will have Branch:
labels for branches sprouted after the commit was made. I'm still
dubious about this mode, but if you want it, say --post-date or -p.
2. Annotate the Branch: labels with the release or branch in which the
commit was publicly released. For example, on a release branch you could
see
Branch: REL8_3_STABLE Release: REL8_3_2 [
92c3a8004] 2008年03月29日 00:15:37 +0000
showing that the fix was released in 8.3.2. Commits on master will
usually instead have notes like
Branch: master Release: REL8_4_BR [
6fc9d4272] 2008年03月29日 00:15:28 +0000
showing that this commit is ancestral to release branches 8.4 and later.
If no Release: marker appears, the commit hasn't yet made it into any
release.
3. Add support for release branches older than 7.4.
4. The implementation is improved by running git log on each branch only
back to where the branch sprouts from master. This saves a good deal
of time (about 50% of the runtime when generating the complete history).
We generate the post-date-mode tags via a direct understanding that
they should be applied to master commits made before the branch sprouted,
rather than backing into them via matching (which isn't any too
reliable when people used identical log messages for successive commits).
