rebase: don't rebase obsolete commits with no successor

This patch avoids unnecessary conflicts to resolve during rebase for the users
of changeset evolution.

This patch modifies rebase to skip obsolete commits with no successor.
It introduces a new rebase state 'revpruned' for these revisions that are
being skipped and a new message to inform the user of what is happening.
This feature is gated behind the config flag experimental.rebaseskipobsolete

When an obsolete commit is skipped, the output is:
note: not rebasing 7:360bbaa7d3ce "O", it has no successor

  $ hg init base

  $ cd base
  $ echo 'alpha' > alpha
  $ hg ci -A -m 'add alpha'
  adding alpha
  $ cd ..

  $ hg clone base work
  updating to branch default
  1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved

  $ cd work
  $ echo 'beta' > beta
  $ hg ci -A -m 'add beta'
  adding beta
  $ cd ..

  $ cd base
  $ echo 'gamma' > gamma
  $ hg ci -A -m 'add gamma'
  adding gamma
  $ cd ..

  $ cd work
  $ hg pull -q
  $ hg merge
  1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  (branch merge, don't forget to commit)

Update --clean to revision 1 to simulate a failed merge:

  $ rm alpha beta gamma
  $ hg update --clean 1
