Improve clarity of commit and symbol handling in DiffusionRequest

Description

Improve clarity of commit and symbol handling in DiffusionRequest

Summary:
Ref T2683. Currently, DiffusionRequest has four different "commitey" things:

  • commit
  • rawCommit
  • symbolicCommit
  • stableCommit

Of these, only two are actually distinct, useful values: symbolicCommit (which holds the value the request originally contained, if one existed) and stableCommit (which resolves that value, or the value implied by its omission, into a stable, permanent commit identifier).

  • rawCommit is equivalent to symbolicCommit and can be simply removed.
  • commit has some sketchy magic around it that needs to be pulled out before it can be jettisoned.

Test Plan: Viewed SVN, Git, and Mercurial repositories. Viewed brwose/history/change/tag/branch/etc views.
