[PATCH 5/8] checkout: respect GIT_REFLOG_ACTION

[Ramkumar Ramachandra <artagnon@gmail.com>]

GIT_REFLOG_ACTION is an environment variable specifying the reflog
message to write after an action is completed.  Several other commands
including merge, reset, and commit respect it.

Fix the failing tests in t/checkout-last by making checkout respect it
too.  You can now expect

  $ git checkout -

to work as expected after any a rebase [-i].  It will also work with any
other scripts provided they set an appropriate GIT_REFLOG_ACTION if they
internally use "git checkout".
