rebase: drop support for `--preserve-merges`

This option was deprecated in favor of `--rebase-merges` some time ago,
and now we retire it.

To assist users to transition away, we do not _actually_ remove the
option, but now we no longer implement the functionality. Instead, we
offer a helpful error message suggesting which option to use.
