Both remove_branch_state() and drop_save() delete almost the same set of files about the current merge state. The only difference is MERGE_RR but it should also be cleaned up after a successful merge, which is what drop_save() is for.

Make a new function that deletes all merge-related state files and use it instead of drop_save(). This function will also be used in the next patch that introduces --quit.
