From: Brian Lyles <brianmlyles@xxxxxxxxx>
When `git-am` got its own `--empty` option in 7c096b8d61 (am: support
--empty=<option> to handle empty patches, 2021-12-09), `stop` was used
instead of `ask`. `stop` is a more accurate term for describing what
really happens, and consistency is good. This commit updates
`git-rebase` to also use `stop`, while keeping `ask` as a deprecated
synonym.
In a future commit, we'll be adding a new `--empty` option for
`git-cherry-pick` as well, making the consistency even more relevant.

The rebase will halt when the empty commit is applied, allowing you to
choose whether to drop it, edit files more, or just commit the empty

Other options, like `--exec`, will use the default of drop unless
