Heh, no such deep thought went into this.  I just copied what is
done in builtin/ls-files.c::show_ru_info() that grabs these blobs
and does something interesting and the only difference is this does
something else interesting.

We _could_ refactor these to into "take a callback and iterate over
resolve-undo information" shell plus two callback functions, one to
print them and the other to mark them still reachable, but the
iterator being relatively short, I doubt that it is worth it.

Thanks.
