rebase: allow rebase even if some revisions need no rebase (BC) (issue5422)

This allows you to do e.g. "hg rebase -d @ -r 'draft()'" even if some
drafts are already based off of @. You'd still need to exclude
obsolete and troubled revisions, though. We will deal with those cases
later.

Implemented by treating state[rev]==rev as "no need to rebase". I
considered adding another fake revision number like revdone=-6. That
would make the code clearer in a few places, but would add extra code
in other places.

I moved the existing test out of test-rebase-base.t and into a new
file and added more tests there, since not all are using --base.

Mercurial
=========

Mercurial is a fast, easy to use, distributed revision control tool
for software developers.

Basic install:

 $ make            # see install targets
 $ make install    # do a system-wide install
 $ hg debuginstall # sanity-check setup
 $ hg              # see help

Running without installing:

 $ make local      # build for inplace usage
 $ ./hg --version  # should show the latest version

See https://mercurial-scm.org/ for detailed installation
instructions, platform-specific notes, and Mercurial user information.
