[PATCH 5/7] rebase -i: return control to the caller, for housekeeping

On a successful interactive rebase, git-rebase--interactive.sh currently cleans up and exits on its own. Instead of doing these two things ourselves:

    rm -fr "$dotest"
    git gc --auto

let us return control to the caller (git-rebase.sh), to do the needful. The advantage of doing this is that the caller can implement a generic cleanup routine (and possibly other things) independent of specific rebases.
