merge: make low-level update() private (API)

We have very few callers left that call the low-level `merge.update()`
function. I think it's time to make it private. I'll remove the
remaining callers in coming patches, except for one call from the
`rebase` module. I hope to eventually fix that too, but it's more
complex because it requires teaching `merge.graft()` to work with a
dirty working copy.
