[PATCH 4/6] builtin rebase: show progress when connected to a terminal

[Pratik Karki <predatoramigo@gmail.com>]

In this commit, we pass `--progress` to the `format-patch` command if
stderr is connected to an interactive terminal, unless we're in quiet
mode.

This `--progress` option will be used in `format-patch` to show progress
reports on stderr as patches are generated.
