merge-base --octopus to mimic show-branch --merge-base
While show-branch --merge-base does not support more than MAX_REVS
revs, git supports more with a different algorithm
(v1.6.0-rc0~51^2~13, Introduce get_octopus_merge_bases() in commit.c,
2008-06-27). Expose that functionality.
This should help scripts to catch up with builtin merge in supporting
dodecapus.
