cvsimport: cleanup commit function
This change attempts to clean up the commit function to make it a bit
easier to read (or at least the first half of it). It also improves
robustness and performance. Specifically:
- report get_headref errors on opening ref unless the error is ENOENT
- use regex to check for sha1 instead of length
- use lexically scoped filehandles which get cleaned up automagically
- check for error on both 'print' and 'close' (since output is buffered)
- avoid "fork, do some perl, then exec" in commit(). It's not necessary,
and we probably end up COW'ing parts of the perl process. Plus the code
is much smaller because we can use open2()
- avoid calling strftime over and over (mainly a readability cleanup)
