histedit: allow configuring default behavior
Adds a configuration setting for allowing users to specify the default behavior
of 'hg histedit' without arguments. This saves users from having to manually
figure out the bottom commit or a complicated revset. My current revset of
choice is "only(.) & draft() - ::merge()"
The commits that histedit can work with is usually quite limited, so if this
feature ends up working well, we may want to consider making "only(.) & draft()
- ::merge()" the default behavior for everyone.

When Mercurial accepts more than one revision, they may be specified individually, or provided as a topologically continuous range, separated by the ":" character. The syntax of range notation is [BEGIN]:[END], where BEGIN and END are revision identifiers. Both BEGIN and END are optional. If BEGIN is not specified, it defaults to revision number 0. If END is not specified, it defaults to the tip. The range ":" thus means "all revisions". If BEGIN is greater than END, revisions are treated in reverse order. A range acts as a closed interval. This means that a range of 3:5 gives 3, 4 and 5. Similarly, a range of 9:6 gives 9, 8, 7, and 6.
