When the external command invoked by "rebase -x" replaces the HEAD,
we seem to lose the notes attached to the original HEAD, which is
why we have been losing the amlog mappings in the git core project.
Here is a half-successful attempt to fix it. For whatever reason,
when the external command is "git commit --amend --no-edit", the
updated code carries notes forward correctly, but when the command
is changed to "git commit --amend -m tweak", it fails to do so, and
I do not have more time to work on this, so I'd stop here with an
expected failure in the test.
Help is appreciated.

If HEAD has changed then we copy the notes - but we never copied the
notes from the original commit to the rewritten commit before running
the exec command so this does not do what we want. I think this is why
the second test below fails. I think the first test passes because the
author and committer identities and dates of the amended commit are
unchanged from the rebased commit so we end up copying the notes at the
end of the rebase because the oid is unchanged.
Blindly copying the notes here would mean that the notes would be copied
if an exec command created a new commit on top of HEAD rather than
amending HEAD which is not what we want.
