bisect--helper: implement "git bisect--helper"

This patch implements a new "git bisect--helper" builtin plumbing
command that will be used to migrate "git-bisect.sh" to C.

We start by implementing only the "--next-vars" option that will
read bisect refs from "refs/bisect/", and then compute the next
bisect step, and output shell variables ready to be eval'ed by
the shell.

At this step, "git bisect--helper" ignores the paths that may
have been put in "$GIT_DIR/BISECT_NAMES". This will be fixed in a
later patch.
