absorb: make `--edit-lines` imply `--apply-changes` One of our users tried to use `hg absorb -e` but it seemed that it would only bring up the editor if there were no changes the command could automatically detect destination for. I spent probably half an hour debugging why it worked that way. I finally figured out that it does bring up the editor, but you have to answer "yes" to the "apply changes" prompt *first*. That seems very unintuitive. If the user wants to edit the changes, there seems to be little reason to present them with a prompt first, so let's have `-e/--edit-lines` imply `-a/--apply-changes`. All the tests using `-e` also already used `-a`. I changed them to rely on the implied `-a` so we get coverage of that. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D12550

  $ cat >> $HGRCPATH << EOF

  $ hg init repo1
  $ cd repo1

Make some commits:

  $ for i in 1 2 3; do
  >   echo $i >> a
  >   hg commit -A a -m "commit $i" -q
  > done

absorb --edit-lines will run the editor if filename is provided:

  $ hg absorb --edit-lines

  $ HGEDITOR=cat hg absorb --edit-lines a

  HG: "y" means the line to the right exists in the changeset to the top

Edit the file using --edit-lines:

  $ cat > editortext << EOF
  >       y : a
  >      yy :  b
  >      y  : c
  >     yy  : d  
  >     y y : e
  >     y   : f
  >     yyy : g
