revert: Introduce --reset to remove sequencer state

To explicitly remove the sequencer state for a fresh cherry-pick or
revert invocation, introduce a new subcommand called "--reset" to
remove the sequencer state.

Take the opportunity to publicly expose the sequencer paths, and a
generic function called "remove_sequencer_state" that various git
programs can use to remove the sequencer state in a uniform manner;
"git reset" uses it later in this series.  Introducing this public API
is also in line with our long-term goal of eventually factoring out
functions from revert.c into a generic commit sequencer.
