We have for some time shown a long warning when the user does not
specify how to reconcile divergent branches with git pull. Make it an
error now.

This is used by "git pull" to construct a merge message from list of
remote refs. When pulling redundant set of refs, however, it did not
filter them even though the merge itself discards them as unnecessary.
Teach the command to do the same for consistency.

Instead of waiting until we record the parents of resulting merge, reduce
redundant parents (including our HEAD) immediately after reading them.
The change to t7602 illustrates the essence of the effect of this change.
The octopus merge strategy used to be fed with redundant commits only to
discard them as "up-to-date", but we no longer feed such redundant commits
to it and the affected test degenerates to a regular two-head merge.
And obviously the known-to-be-broken test in t6028 is now fixed.

This happens when git merge is run to merge multiple commits that are
descendants of current HEAD (or are HEAD). We've hit this while updating
master to origin/master but accidentaly we called (while being on master):
$ git merge master origin/master
Here is a minimal testcase:
$ git init a && cd a
$ echo a >a && git add a
$ git commit -minitial
$ echo b >a && git add a
$ git commit -msecond
$ git checkout master^
$ git merge master master
Fast-forwarding to: master
Already up-to-date with master
Merge made by the 'octopus' strategy.

The old shell version used show-branch --independent to filter for the
ones that cannot be reached from any other reference.
The new C version uses reduce_heads() from commit.c for this, so
add test to ensure it works as expected.
