I do not necessarily agree with the log message in that this change
makes the contrast between prepare_{initial,final} more clear, but I
like it nevertheless because it makes the interface into the helpers
that prepare "initial" and "final" very similar.

The lifetime rule of final_commit_name used to be that these helpers
make a copy to be owned by the caller, and it seems that this change
makes all codepaths borrow it from entries in the revs.pending list.
I think that conversion is also done correctly in this patch.

So far, nicely done.
