reduce_heads(): thinkofix

When comparing two commit objects for equality, it is sufficient to
compare their in-core pointers because the object layer guarantees the
uniqueness.  However, comparing pointers to two "struct commit_list"
instances that point at the same commit does not make any sense.

Spotted by Sverre Hvammen Johansen who wrote an additional test to expose
the problem, fixed by Miklos Vajna.
