Yes, I will break this into several commits

Left over from testing, will be removed.

Junio, thanks for the review.

As you suggest in v3 I'm going to break the change into several commits
but leave everything in one file as it is here in v2. If desired we can break
it into several files as a last step.

I'm currently contemplating not touching long lines. In this file long lines
were acceptable in the past and rather than introduce many changes to
fix them I think it might be best to leave them. Also, there is a proposal
that a GSOC might convert one or more of the git-rebase--* files into C,
in which case these files could be removed.

But if that doesn't come to past, I believe my goal of simplication and fixing:
  "not ok 24 - exchange two commits with -p # TODO known breakage"
In t3404-rebase-interactive.sh is worth while.
