mq: save qrefresh message for easy recovery in case it fails (issue2062)

Currently, if you start editing a commit message from qrefresh -e and, for any
reason: forget you were editing it, leave the editor open and start qpopping
and qpushing, when you decide to save your commit message, it is going to fail.
This patch copies the commit behavior of saving the message contents in
$HGROOT/.hg/last-message.txt before continuing.
