rebase: add --quit to cleanup rebase, leave everything else untouched
There are occasions when you decide to abort an in-progress rebase and move on to do something else but you forget to do "git rebase --abort" first. Or the rebase has been in progress for so long you forgot about it. By the time you realize that (e.g. by starting another rebase) it's already too late to retrace your steps. The solution is normally rm -r .git/<some rebase dir> and continue with your life. But there could be two different directories for <some rebase dir> (and it obviously requires some knowledge of how rebase works), and the ".git" part could be much longer if you are not at top-dir, or in a linked worktree. And "rm -r" is very dangerous to do in .git, a mistake in there could destroy object database or other important data. Provide "git rebase --quit" for this use case, mimicking a precedent that is "git cherry-pick --quit".
