bisect: peel annotated tags to commits

This patch fixes a bug where git-bisect doesn't handle receiving annotated tags as "git bisect good <tag>", etc. It's a regression in 27257bc466 (bisect--helper: reimplement `bisect_state` & `bisect_head` shell functions in C, 2020-10-15). The original shell code called: sha=$(git rev-parse --verify "$rev^{commit}") || die "$(eval_gettext "Bad rev input: \$rev")" which will peel the input to a commit (or complain if that's not possible). But the C code just calls get_oid(), which will yield the oid of the tag. The fix is to peel to a commit. The error message here is a little non-idiomatic for Git (since it starts with a capital). I've mostly left it, as it matches the other converted messages (like the "Bad rev input" we print when get_oid() fails), though I did add an indication that it was the peeling that was the problem. It might be worth taking a pass through this converted code to modernize some of the error messages. Note also that the test does a bare "grep" (not i18ngrep) on the expected "X is the first bad commit" output message. This matches the rest of the test script.
