rebase: find orig_head unambiguously
When we 'git rebase $upstream', git uses 'rev-parse --verify $current_branch' to find ORIG_HEAD. But if $current_branch is ambiguous, 'rev-parse --verify' emits a warning and returns a SHA1 anyway. When the wrong ambiguous choice is used, git-rebase fails non-gracefully: it emits a warning about failing to lock $current_branch, an error about being unable to checkout $current_branch again, and it might even decide the rebase is a fast-forward when it is not. In the 'rebase $upstream' case, we already know the unambiguous spelling of $current_branch is "HEAD". Fix git-rebase to find $orig_head unambiguously. Add a test in t3400-rebase.sh which creates an ambiguous branch name and rebases it implicitly with 'git rebase $other'.
