Ah, so this allows sequences like

	revert A
	pick B
	pick C
	revert D

Nit: why isn't the list-item struct something like

	struct replay_insn item;
	struct replay_insn_list *next;

which would save a little memory management and memory access
overhead (or even

	enum replay_action action;
	struct commit *operand;
	struct replay_insn_list *next;

since every "struct replay_insn" exists in the context of an
insn list afaict)?

Anyway, the general idea seems good.
