D7177: rebase: introduce optional parent mapping

[martinvonz (Martin von Zweigbergk)]

  Maybe another option is to allow multiple `-d` arguments for this case? Something like `hg rebase -r C -d B -d D`. I haven't thought through BC, but I think that's what I'd prefer if we were writing rebase from scratch. I know we can't support `hg rebase -r C -d 'B + D'` for backward-compatibility reasons (because we already support that -- it rebases to the highest revnum in the set).
