Review Board now plays nice with inaccessible SVN commits

If using ACLs to limit access to parts of a Subversion tree, both the New Review Request page and the commits API would break. Inaccessible commits appear in the commit log, but with no data other than a revision. No date, no message, no author, and we expected at least a date to appear.

So that’s fixed up now. Such commits are now shown in the commits list, though with minimal information. Ideally, we’d completely filter these out when querying for them, but that doesn’t seem doable. At least things aren’t totally broken now!
