When I added the function for rebasing descendants, I forgot to call
the existing `rebase()` function and instead simply created a new
commit with the new parents but the old contents.
This should be useful in lots of places. For example, `jj rebase -r`
currently rebases all descendants, because that's what the auto-evolve
feature does. I think it would be nice to instead copy from
Mercurial's `-s` flag for also rebasing descendants. Then `jj rebase
-r` can be made to pull a commit out of a stack, rebasing descendants
onto the rebased commit's parents. I also intend to use this
functionality for rebasing descendants when remote branches have been
rewritten.
The index is now always kept up to date and it has functionality for
finding common ancestors, so let's use it! This should make merging
commits a little faster if their common ancestor is far away (which is
rare). It's probably much more important that the index-based
algorithm is more correct. Also, it returns multiple common ancestors
in the criss-cross case, which lets us do a recursive merge like git
does. I'm leaving the recursive merge for later, though.
