log: clean unneeded objects during `log --remerge-diff`
The --remerge-diff option will need to create new blobs and trees
representing the "automatic merge" state. If one is traversing a
long project history, one can easily get hundreds of thousands of
loose objects generated during `log --remerge-diff`. However, none of
those loose objects are needed after we have completed our diff
operation; they can be summarily deleted.
Add a new helper function to tmp_objdir to discard all the contained
objects, and call it after each merge is handled.
