rebase-merges: move labels' whitespace mangling into label_oid()

One of the trickier aspects of the design of `git rebase
--rebase-merges` is the way labels are generated for the initial todo
list: those labels are supposed to be intuitive and first and foremost
unique.

To that end, `label_oid()` appends a unique suffix when necessary.

Those labels not only need to be unique, but they also need to be valid
refs. To make sure of that, `make_script_with_merges()` replaces
whitespace by dashes.

That would appear to be the wrong layer for that sanitizing step,
though: all callers of `label_oid()` should get that same benefit.

Even if it does not make a difference currently (the only called of
`label_oid()` that passes a label that might need to be sanitized _is_
`make_script_with_merges()`), let's move the responsibility for
sanitizing labels into the `label_oid()` function.

This commit is best viewed with `-w` because it unfortunately needs to
change the indentation of a large block of code in `label_oid()`.
