In case there is no commit to apply (for example because you rebase to
upstream and all your local patches have been applied there), do not
fail.  The non-interactive rebase already behaves that way.

Do this by introducing a new command, "noop", which is substituted for
an empty commit list, so that deleting the commit list can still abort
as before.
