subtree: refactor split of a commit into standalone method

roger-strain · gitster · commit 565e4b79816c · 2018-10-07T08:09:34.000+09:00
In a particularly complex repo, subtree split was not creating
compatible splits for pushing back to a separate repo. Addressing
one of the issues requires recursive handling of parent commits
that were not initially considered by the algorithm. This commit
makes no functional changes, but relocates the code to be called
recursively into a new method to simply comparisons of later
commits.
