This is a similar fix as 023756f4eb (revision walker: --cherry-pick is a
limited operation), but for the --left-only and --right-only options.
When computing a symmetric difference between two unrelated histories,
no suitable merge base exists, and so no boundary commit is flagged as
UNINTERESTING. Previously, we relied on the presence of such boundary
to trigger limiting and thus consideration of either "revs->left_only"
or "revs->right_only".
A number of other entries in the option parser have started including
overrides for "revs->limited = 1". Do the same for these options.

Patch applies to the current maint branch (git v2.49.0).
I made a best guess at what the most logical home for this test case
should be, so please let me know if somewhere else is preferred. All
tests pass when this is cherry-picked to seen. There is only a minor
conflict, as a few different tests have appeared in this same spot.
