revision: do not include sibling history in --ancestry-path output

If the commit specified as the bottom of the commit range has a direct
parent that has another child commit that contributed to the resulting
history, "rev-list --ancestry-path" was confused and listed that side
history as well, due to the command line parser subtlety corrected by the
previous commit.
