rebase --rebase-merges: avoid "empty merges"
The `git merge` command does not allow merging commits that are already reachable from HEAD: `git merge HEAD^`, for example, will report that we are already up to date and not change a thing. In an interactive rebase, such a merge could occur previously, e.g. when competing (or slightly modified) versions of a patch series were applied upstream, and the user had to `git rebase --skip` all of the local commits, and the topic branch becomes "empty" as a consequence. Let's teach the todo command `merge` to behave the same as `git merge`. Seeing as it requires some low-level trickery to create such merges with Git's commands in the first place, we do not even have to bother to introduce an option to force `merge` to create such merge commits.
