get_commit_tree(): return NULL for broken tree

Return NULL from 'get_commit_tree()' when a commit's root tree is corrupt, doesn't exist, or points to an object which is not a tree. In [1], this situation became a BUG(), but it can certainly occur in cases which are not a bug in Git, for e.g., if a caller manually crafts a commit whose tree is corrupt in any of the above ways. Note that the expect_failure test in t6102 triggers this BUG(), but we can't flip it to expect_success yet. Solving this problem actually reveals a second bug.
