rebase: add -m/--message to rebase --collapse (issue2389)
When collapsing changesets with rebase, you get a chance to edit the commit
message manually, but there is no way to pass this message from the command
line. This patch adds a `--message` (with short form `-m`) and `--logfile`
(with short form `-m`) options to the rebase command. These options suppresses
the generation of the default commit message, and instead use the message
provided in the option (in case of `-m`) or in the file it points to (in case
of `-l`).
If you use this option without the `--collapse` option, it will raise an
error.

These initial lines of Xs were not in the original file used to generate
the patch. So all the patch hunks need to be applied to a constant offset
within this file. If the offset isn't tracked then the hunks can be
applied to the wrong lines of this file.
