[PATCH v11 0/7] graph: indent visual roots in graph

When rendering a graph, if the history contains multiple "visual roots",
actual roots or commits that look like roots (i.e. have their parents
filtered out) can end up being vertically adjacent to unrelated commits,
falsely appearing to be related.

A fix for this issue was already attempted [1] a while ago.

This series adds indentation to the visual root commits, so they cannot be
vertically adjacent anymore making it easier to identify them.

Before indentation:

	* A
	* B1
	* B2
	* C1
	* C2

After indentation:

	  * A
	* B1
	 \
	  * B2
	* C1
	* C2

Indents the visual root commits that have still commits to show after
them, and if they have children it connects them with an edge at a new
row.

If there are multiple visual roots adjacent in history, the indentation
starts with the second one, avoiding redundant indentation of the first
one and cascades after the second.

	* A
	  * B
	    * C
	      * D
	* E
	  * F
	    * G
	      * H
	  * I
	* J1
	* J2

The indentation wraps after cascading columns and when wrapping back to
the initial column if the next commit is a non-visual-root commit, force
the indentation one extra level.

Series explanation:

- Cleanup to bring a common function from t4215 and t6016 that will be
  used in t4218.

- Logic extraction of the chose of from where the commit source comes
  from.

- Add a buffer for lookahead purposes.

- Principal commit. Implement the logic to get the visual roots
  indented.

- Make visual root cascading wrap after 4 columns

- Add --[no-]graph-indent and log.graphIndent options.

- Changed boolean variables to be bit fields.
