The Tools menu is generally intended for commands that
affect the working directory or repository state. Thus,
the user would usually want to initiate rescan after
execution of a tool. This commit implements it.
In case somebody would want to avoid rescanning after
certain tools, it also adds an option that controls it,
although it is not made available through the Add dialog.

While static commands are already useful, some tools need
additional parameters to reach maximum usability. This
commit adds support for passing them one revision name
parameter, and one arbitrary string. With this addition,
the tools menu becomes flexible enough to implement basic
rebase support:
[core]
editor = kwrite
[guitool "Rebase/Abort"]
cmd = git rebase --abort
confirm = yes
[guitool "Rebase/Continue"]
cmd = git rebase --continue
[guitool "Rebase/Skip Commit"]
cmd = git rebase --skip
confirm = yes
[guitool "Rebase/Start..."]
cmd = git rebase $ARGS $REVISION $CUR_BRANCH
title = Start Rebase
prompt = Rebase Current Branch
argprompt = Flags
revprompt = New Base
revunmerged = yes
Some of the options, like title or prompt, are intentionally
not included in the Add dialog to avoid clutter. Also, the
dialog handles argprompt and revprompt as boolean vars.

Due to the emphasis on scriptability in the git
design, it is impossible to provide 100% complete
GUI. Currently unaccounted areas include git-svn
and other source control system interfaces, TopGit,
all custom scripts.
This problem can be mitigated by providing basic
customization capabilities in Git Gui. This commit
adds a new Tools menu, which can be configured
to contain items invoking arbitrary shell commands.
The interface is powerful enough to allow calling
both batch text programs like git-svn, and GUI editors.
To support the latter use, the commands have access
to the name of the currently selected file through
the environment.
