[PATCH] rebase -x: do not die without -i

In the later steps of preparing a patch series I do not want to edit the patches any more, but just make sure the test suite passes after each patch. Currently I would run

  EDITOR=true git rebase -i <anchor> -x "make test"
In an ideal world the command would be simpler and just be
  git rebase <anchor> -x "make test"

to run the test for each commit I am about to send out for review. This patch enables the short line.

While at it, remove the double empty lines in t3404.

 Junio,
 
 This is a slightly different approach.
 
 -x doesn't imply -i any more, but just the internal code does that. The user
 will see --exec working just fine without the -i option given.
 Thanks,
 Stefan
