[PATCH] git-commit --amend: respect grafted parents.

[Johannes Sixt <johannes.sixt@telecom.at>]

This allows a poor-mans-filter-branch of the top-most commit.

Specifically, I had this history:

   --o--o--A'    <-- amended version of A
         \
          A
           \
    --o--B--M

I now wanted to "amend" M to pull in A' instead of A as its second parent.
For various reasons I didn't want to redo the merge M again, in particular,
it already contained the changes that were amended into A'. So I figured
I would just install a graft that lists B and A' as parents of M and then
do a simple git commit --amend. Alas, git commit looks at the real parents
instead of the grafted ones, so the amended M' would still have A as its
second parent. Here is the fix that picks the grafted parents instead.

  I know that git-commit is becoming a builtin. At the least, here is
  a test that makes sure that the behavior is remains.
