rev-parse: teach "--verify" to be quiet when using "-q" or "--quiet"
Currently "git rev-parse --verify <something>" is often used with
its error output redirected to /dev/null. This patch makes it
easier to do that.
The -q|--quiet option is designed to work the same way as it does
for "git symbolic-ref".
