[PATCH v2 17/21] bisect: rename count_distance() to compute_weight()

Let us use the term "weight" for the number of ancestors of each commit, and "distance" for the number min{weight, #commits - weight}. (Bisect finds the commit with maximum distance.) In these terms, "count_distance()" is the wrong name of the function. So it is renamed to "compute_weight()", and
