This will make it easier to manage the buffer cache independently of the "struct commit" objects. It also shrinks "struct commit" by one pointer, which may be helpful. Unfortunately it does not reduce the max memory size of something like "rev-list", because rev-list uses get_cached_commit_buffer() to decide not to show each commit's output (and due to the design of slab_at, accessing the slab requires us to extend it, allocating exactly the same number of buffer pointers we dropped from the commit structs).
