Read the task commit from task_info.yaml

[rcannood]

Describe your changes

get_task_info hardcoded the commit, so every task_info.json we have ever
published carries "commit": null:

commit = jsonlite::unbox(NA_character_), # TODO: Add when available in task_info.yaml

It now reads the field:

commit = jsonlite::unbox(task_info_yaml$commit %||% NA_character_),

The %||% is there for the null rather than as a placeholder -- unbox(NULL)
serialises to {}, not null, so dropping it entirely would change the shape of
the output for every task that does not write the field yet:

jsonlite::toJSON(list(commit = jsonlite::unbox(list()$commit)))
#> {"commit":{}}
jsonlite::toJSON(list(commit = jsonlite::unbox(list()$commit %||% NA_character_)))
#> {"commit":null}
