graft: introduce --base option for using custom base revision while merging

The graft command usually performs an internal merge of the current parent
revision with the graft revision, using p1 of the grafted revision as base for
the merge.

As a trivial extension of this, we introduce the --base option to allow for
using another base revision.

This can be used as a building block for grafting and collapsing multiple
changesets at once, or for grafting the resulting change from a merge as a
single simple change. (This is kind of similar to backout --parent ... only
different: this graft base must be an ancestor, but is usually *not* a parent.)

This is probably an advanced use case, and we do thus not show it in the
non-verbose help.

+      The --base option exposes more of how graft internally uses merge with a
+      custom base revision. --base can be used to specify another ancestor than
+      the first and only parent.
+
+      The command::
+
+        hg graft -r 345 --base 234
+
+      is thus pretty much the same as::
+
+        hg diff -r 234 -r 345 | hg import
+
+      but using merge to resolve conflicts and track moved files.
+
+      The result of a merge can thus be backported as a single commit by
+      specifying one of the merge parents as base, and thus effectively
+      grafting the changes from the other side.
+
+      It is also possible to collapse multiple changesets and clean up history
+      by specifying another ancestor as base, much like rebase --collapse
+      --keep.
+
+      The commit message can be tweaked after the fact using commit --amend .
+
+      For using non-ancestors as the base to backout changes, see the backout
+      command and the hidden --parent option.
