From: Elijah Newren <newren@xxxxxxxxx>
Commit b00bf1c9a8dd ("git-rebase: make --allow-empty-message the
default", 2018-06-27) made --allow-empty-message the default and thus
turned --allow-empty-message into a no-op but did not update the
documentation to reflect this. Update the documentation now, and hide
the option from the normal -h output since it is not useful.
