Add ref selector to commit list header
What does this MR do and why?
This is part of a bigger effort to refactor the repository Commit list. All changes are behind the FF project_commits_refactor`. Specifically, this MR adds the ref selector to the commit list header. This matches exactly the existing ref selector when FF is off.
