replay: allow callers to control what happens with empty commits 

When replaying commits it may happen that some of the commits become
empty relative to their parent. Such commits are for now automatically
dropped by the replay subsystem without much control from the user.

Introduce a new enum that allows the caller to drop, keep or abort in
this case.
