commit-graph: introduce ensure_generations_valid()

Use the just-introduced compute_reachable_generation_numbers_1() to
implement a function which dynamically computes topological levels (or
corrected commit dates) for out-of-graph commits.

This will be useful for the ahead-behind algorithm we are about to
introduce, which needs accurate topological levels on _all_ commits
reachable from the tips in order to avoid over-counting.
