builtin-notes: Add -c/-C options for reusing notes
Inspired by the -c/-C options to "git commit", we teach these options to
"git notes add/append" to allow reuse of note objects.
With this patch in place, it is now easy to copy or move notes between
objects. For example, to copy object A's notes to object B:
git notes add [-f] -C $(git notes list A) B
To move instead of copying, you simply remove the notes from the source
object afterwards, e.g.:
git notes remove A
The patch includes tests verifying correct behaviour of the new functionality.
