The handle_revision_arg function is rather long, and a big
chunk of it is handling the range operators. Let's pull that
out to a separate helper. While we're doing so, we can clean
up a few of the rough edges that made the flow hard to
follow:

  - instead of manually restoring *dotdot (that we overwrote
    with a NUL), do the real work in a sub-helper, which
    makes it clear that the munge/restore lines are a
    matched pair

  - eliminate a goto which wasn't actually used for control
    flow, but only to avoid duplicating a few lines
    (instead, those lines are pushed into another helper
    function)

  - use early returns instead of deep nesting

  - consistently name all variables for the left-hand side
    of the range as "a" (rather than "this" or "from") and
    the right-hand side as "b" (rather than "next", or using
    the unadorned "sha1" or "flags" from the main function).
