Patrick Steinhardt 86b7873b74 builtin: add new "history" command
When rewriting history via git-rebase(1) there are a few very common use
cases:

  - The ordering of two commits should be reversed.

  - A commit should be split up into two commits.

  - A commit should be dropped from the history completely.

  - Multiple commits should be squashed into one.

  - Editing an existing commit that is not the tip of the current
    branch.

While these operations are all doable, it often feels needlessly kludgey
to do so by doing an interactive rebase, using the editor to say what
one wants, and then perform the actions. Furthermore, some operations
like splitting up a commit into two are way more involved than that and
require a whole series of commands.

Add a new "history" command to plug this gap. This command will have
several different subcommands to imperatively rewrite history for common
use cases like the above. Some of these subcommands will be implemented
in subsequent commits.

# Command classification list
# ---------------------------
# All supported commands, builtin or external, must be described in
# here. This info is used to list commands in various places. Each
# command is on one line followed by one or more attributes.
#
# The first attribute group is mandatory and indicates the command
# type. This group includes:
#
# mainporcelain
# ancillarymanipulators
# ancillaryinterrogators
# foreignscminterface
# plumbingmanipulators
# plumbinginterrogators
# synchingrepositories
# synchelpers
# purehelpers
#
# The type names are self explanatory. But if you want to see what
# command belongs to what group to get a better picture, have a look
# at "git" man page, "GIT COMMANDS" section.
#
# Commands of type mainporcelain can also optionally have one of these
# attributes:
#
# init
# worktree
# info
# history
# remote
#
# These commands are considered "common" and will show up in "git
# help" output in groups. Uncommon porcelain commands must not
# specify any of these attributes.
#
# "complete" attribute is used to mark that the command should be
# completable by git-completion.bash. Note that by default,
# mainporcelain commands are completable so you don't need this
# attribute.
#
# As part of the Git man page list, the man(5/7) guides are also
# specified here, which can only have "guide" attribute and nothing
# else.
#
# User-facing repository, command and file interfaces such as
# documentation for the .gitmodules, .mailmap etc. files lives in man
# sections 5 and 7. These entries can only have the "userinterfaces"
# attribute and nothing else.
#
# Git's file formats and protocols, such as documentation for the
# *.bundle format lives in man section 5. These entries can only have
# the "developerinterfaces" attribute and nothing else.
