commit: implement function to parse raw data Currently, parsing objects is strictly tied to having an ODB object available. This makes it hard to parse an object when all that is available is its raw object and size. Furthermore, hacking around that limitation by directly creating an ODB structure either on stack or on heap does not really work that well due to ODB objects being reference counted and then automatically free'd when reaching a reference count of zero. Implement a function `git_commit__parse_raw` to parse a commit object from a pair of `data` and `size`.
