rev-parse: --abbrev-ref option to shorten ref name
This applies the shorten_unambiguous_ref function to the object name.
Default mode is controlled by core.warnAmbiguousRefs. Else it is given as
optional argument to --abbrev-ref={strict|loose}.
This should be faster than 'git for-each-ref --format="%(refname:short)" <ref>'
for single refs.
