rebase -i: teach "--exec <cmd>"

During an interactive rebase session, it is sometimes desirable to
run tests on each commit in the resulting history.  This can be done
by adding "exec <test command>" when editing the insn sheet, but the
command used for testing is often the same for all resulting commits.

By passing "--exec <cmd>" from the command line, automatically add
these "exec" lines after each commit in the final history.  To work
well with the --autosquash option, these are added at the end of
each run of "fixup" and "squash".
