histedit: use rewriteutil.precheck() instead of reimplementing it

We have had this nice utility since 490df753894d (rewriteutil: add a
precheck function to check if revs can be rewritten, 2017-11-24). We
got two callers soon thereafter, in 98f97eb20597 (rewriteutil: use
precheck() in uncommit and amend commands, 2017-11-28). It's about
time we use it in other places.

rewriteutil.precheck() looks unfortunate for i18n (it seems to rely on
an English verb for the action making sense in other languages), but
hopefully not bad enough that we should avoid using it.

  $ cat >> $HGRCPATH << EOF
  > [extensions]
  > absorb=
  > EOF

  $ hg init repo1
  $ cd repo1

Make some commits:

  $ for i in 1 2 3; do
  >   echo $i >> a
  >   hg commit -A a -m "commit $i" -q
  > done

absorb --edit-lines will run the editor if filename is provided:

  $ hg absorb --edit-lines --apply-changes
  nothing applied
  [1]
  $ HGEDITOR=cat hg absorb --edit-lines --apply-changes a
  HG: editing a
  HG: "y" means the line to the right exists in the changeset to the top
  HG:
  HG: /---- 4ec16f85269a commit 1
  HG: |/--- 5c5f95224a50 commit 2
  HG: ||/-- 43f0a75bede7 commit 3
  HG: |||
      yyy : 1
       yy : 2
        y : 3
  nothing applied

Edit the file using --edit-lines:

  $ cat > editortext << EOF
  >       y : a
  >      yy :  b
  >      y  : c
  >     yy  : d  
  >     y y : e
  >     y   : f
  >     yyy : g
  > EOF
