From: Phillip Wood <phillip.wood@dunelm.org.uk>

When the builtin rebase starts an interactive rebase it parses the options and then repackages them and forks `rebase--interactive`. Separate the option parsing in cmd_rebase__interactive() from the business logic to allow interactive rebases can be run without forking `rebase__interactive` by calling run_rebase_interactive() directly. This makes it easy to debug the sequencer without worrying about attaching to child processes. It also makes it easy to remove cmd_rebase__interactive() in the future when git-legacy-rebase.sh and git-rebase--preserve-merges.sh are retired.
