[PATCH v2 1/1] Revert "rebase: introduce a shortcut for --reschedule-failed-exec"

From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>

This patch was contributed only as a tentative "we could introduce a convenient short option if we do not want to change the default behavior in the long run" patch, opening the discussion whether other people agree with deprecating the current behavior in favor of the rescheduling behavior.

But the consensus on the Git mailing list was that it would make sense to show a warning in the near future, and flip the default rebase.rescheduleFailedExec to reschedule failed `exec` commands by default. See e.g. <CAGZ79kZL5CRqCDRb6B-EedUm8Z_i4JuSF2=UtwwdRXMitrrOBw@mail.gmail.com>

So let's back out that patch that added the `-y` short option that we agreed was not necessary or desirable.

This reverts commit 81ef8ee75d5f348d3c71ff633d13d302124e1a5e.
