After resolving a conflicting patch, a user may wish to sign off the
patch to declare that the patch has been modified. As such, the user
will expect that running "git am --signoff --continue" will append the
signoff to the commit message.
However, the --signoff option is only taken into account during the
mail-parsing stage. If the --signoff option is set, then the signoff
will be appended to the commit message. Since the mail-parsing stage
comes before the patch application stage, the --signoff option, if
provided on the command-line when resuming, will have no effect at all.
We cannot move the append_signoff() call to the patch application stage
as the applypatch-msg hook and interactive mode, which run before patch
application, may expect the signoff to be there.
Fix this by taking note if the user explictly set the --signoff option
on the command-line, and append the signoff to the commit message when
resuming if so.

When resuming, git-am mistakenly ignores command-line options.
For instance, when a patch fails to apply with "git am patch",
subsequently running "git am --3way" would not cause git-am to fall
back on attempting a threeway merge. This occurs because by default
the --3way option is saved as "false", and the saved am options are
loaded after the command-line options are parsed, thus overwriting
the command-line options when resuming.
Fix this by moving the am_load() function call before parse_options(),
so that command-line options will override the saved am options.
The purpose of supporting this use case is to enable users to "wiggle"
that one conflicting patch. As such, it is expected that the
command-line options do not affect subsequent applied patches. Implement
this by calling am_load() once we apply the conflicting patch
successfully.
