Compare API requests with a `^` or `~N` revision suffix (for example
`compare/main...feature^`) were rejected with `400 Unsupported
comparison syntax: ref with suffix`. The fix resolves the suffix to a
commit before comparing, so `base...head^` and `~N` work on either side,
the same as git.
Only `^`/`~N` navigation is resolved. Pull request creation still
requires plain branch refs, and the web compare page keeps rejecting
suffixes since its branch selectors need separate UI work.
Closes#33943
- The compare page head title should be `compare` but not `new pull
request`.
- Use `UnstableGuessRefByShortName` instead of duplicated functions
calls.
- Direct-compare, tags, commits compare will not display `New Pull
Request` button any more.
