'git rebase' uses the full onto sha1 for the reflog message whereas 'git
rebase -i' uses the short sha1. This is not only inconsistent, but can
lead to problems when the reflog is inspected at a later time at which
that abbreviation may have become ambiguous.

Make 'rebase -i' use the full onto sha1, as well.

I don't remember having sent this out before but have been running with
it since (including tests). I don't see it on the list either.

While not for 1.7.12 obviously, it might still be good to have.
