this allows a `Fixes: deadbeef` tag to get a correct suggestion rather
than a suggestion containing a reference to HEAD.
Given this patch:

The prior behavior incorrectly suggested the patch's own SHA and title

Got it, thanks. Below is what I ended up with:

Do not require the presence of `$balanced_parens` to get the commit SHA;
this allows a `Fixes: deadbeef` tag to get a correct suggestion rather
than a suggestion containing a reference to HEAD.
