Introduce CHERRY_PICK_HEAD
When a cherry-pick conflicts git advises: $ git commit -c <original commit id> to preserve the original commit message and authorship. Instead, let's record the original commit id in CHERRY_PICK_HEAD and advise: $ git commit -c CHERRY_PICK_HEAD A later patch teaches git to handle the '-c CHERRY_PICK_HEAD' part. Note that we record CHERRY_PICK_HEAD even in the case where there are no conflicts so that we may use it to communicate authorship to commit; this will then allow us to remove set_author_ident_env from revert.c. However, we do not record CHERRY_PICK_HEAD when --no-commit is used, as presumably the user intends to further edit the commit and possibly even cherry-pick additional commits on top. Tests and documentation contributed by Jonathan Nieder.
