t5318: demonstrate commit-graph generation v2 corruption

When upgrading a commit-graph using generation v1 to one using generation v2, it is possible to force Git into a corrupt state where it (incorrectly) believes that a GDO2 chunk is necessary, *after* deciding not to write one. This makes subsequent reads using the commit-graph produce the following error message: fatal: commit-graph requires overflow generation data but has none Demonstrate this bug by increasing our test coverage to include a minimal example of upgrading a commit-graph from generation v1 to v2. The only notable components of this test are: - The committer date of the commit is chosen carefully so that the offset underflows when computed using a v1 generation number, but would not overflow when using v2 generation numbers. - The upgrade to generation number v2 must read in the v1 generation numbers, which we can do by passing `--changed-paths`, which will force the commit-graph internals to call `fill_commit_graph_info()`. A future patch will squash this bug.
