Aborting a rebase stated with 'git rebase <upstream> <tag-object>'
should checkout the commit pointed to by <tag-object>. Instead it gives

    error: update_ref failed for ref 'HEAD': cannot update ref 'HEAD':
    trying to write non-commit object
    710d743b2b9892457fdcc3970f397e6ec07447e0 to branch 'HEAD'

This is because when we parse the command line arguments although we
check that the tag points to a commit we remember the oid of the tag
and try and checkout that object rather than the commit it points
to. Fix this by using lookup_commit_reference_by_name() when parsing
the command line.

Suggested style nit:

I.e. handle the "die" case right away & skip the indenting of the
non-assert code.

(Also grepping around we could really use a fatal non-gentle version of
lookup_commit_reference_by_name(), but that's another more general
cleanup...)

This whole series looks good to me, left some comments on other
patches. Consider the above suggested squash highly optional :)
