ref-filter: implement %(if), %(then), and %(else) atoms

Implement %(if), %(then) and %(else) atoms. Used as
%(if)...%(then)...%(end) or %(if)...%(then)...%(else)...%(end). If the
format string between %(if) and %(then) expands to an empty string, or
to only whitespaces, then the whole %(if)...%(end) expands to the string
following %(then). Otherwise, it expands to the string following
%(else), if any. Nesting of this construct is possible.

This is in preparation for porting over `git branch -l` to use
ref-filter APIs for printing.

Add documentation and tests regarding the same.

 In addition to the above, for commit and tag objects, the header
 field names (`tree`, `parent`, `object`, `type`, and `tag`) can
 be used to specify the value in the header field.

 the date by adding `:` followed by date format name (see the
 values the `--date` option to linkgit:git-rev-list[1] takes).
 
+Some atoms like %(align) and %(if) always require a matching %(end).
+We call them "opening atoms" and sometimes denote them as %($open).
+
+When a scripting language specific quoting is in effect, everything
+between a top-level opening atom and its matching %(end) is evaluated
+according to the semantics of the opening atom and only its result
+from the top-level is quoted.
