Subject: [PATCH] rebase: operate on a detached HEAD

The interactive version of rebase does all the operations on a detached
HEAD, so that after a successful rebase, <branch>@{1} is the pre-rebase
state.  The reflogs of "HEAD" still show all the actions in detail.

This teaches the non-interactive version to do the same.
