When a commit is reverted (or cherry-picked with -x) we add an English
sentence recording that commit id in the new commit message. Make
these real trailer lines instead so that they are more friendly to
parsers (especially "git interpret-trailers").
A reverted commit will have a new trailer
Revert: <commit-id>
Similarly a cherry-picked commit with -x will have
Cherry-picked-from: <commit-id>
When reverting or cherry picking a merge, the reverted/cherry-picked
branch will be shown using extended SHA-1 syntax, e.g.
Revert: <commit-id>~2
Since we're not producing the old lines "This reverts commit ..." and
"(cherry picked from commit .." anymore, scripts that look for these
lines will need to be updated to handle both. Fresh new history could
just rely on git-interpret-trailers instead.

v2 adds the third syntax "~2" and renames Cherry-Pick: to
Cherry-picked-from: and acknowledge the problem with breaking
scripts. I don't have a pretty solution for that though.
