+ always create a new change on top of the specified commit and will let you

* `jj [op] undo` and `jj op restore` used to take the operation to undo or
restore to as an argument to `-o/--operation`. It is now a positional
argument instead (i.e. `jj undo -o abc123` is now written `jj undo abc123`).
