In which case, if the check did not pass at the previous edit, the new
todo list should be compared to the backup.  As sequencer_continue()
already does this, extract this to its own function in
rebase-interactive.c.  To keep track of this, a file is created on the
disk (as you suggested in your other email.)  At the next edit, if this
file exists and no errors were found, it is deleted.  The backup is only
created if there is no errors in `todo_list' and in `new_todo'.

This would guarantee that there is no errors in the backup, and that the
edited list is always compared to a list exempt of errors.

This approach also has the benefit to detect if a commit part of a
badcmd was dropped.

After some tweaks (ie. `expect' now lists 2 commits instead of one),
this passes the test with the change you suggested, and the one you sent
in your other email.

No, it was here to show that we can detect dropped commits, even if the
todo list has an error.
