revision: honor --exclude-first-parent-only with SEEN first parent

The '--exclude-first-parent-only' option instructs the revision walker to follow only the first parent of a merge commit to propagate down the UNINTERESTING bit. However, if the first parent has already been marked SEEN (for example, because it was explicitly specified on the command line), process_parents() skips it with a 'continue' statement. But the loop then continues on to process the second parent, because the check for the '--exclude-first-parent-only' option is near the end of the loop, which the 'continue' statement skips. Consequently, we end up marking the second parent as UNINTERESTING. Break out of the loop instead of continuing when the first parent is already SEEN or fails to parse. This ensures that we do not process subsequent parents and mark them as UNINTERESTING.
