[darcs-users] darcs patch: Add a 'o' command to interactive selecti... (and 4 more)

[Florent Becker]

These patches change the interactive UI of darcs as detailled in issue1920:
they add a last question after patches have been selected to confirm. This
means no more surprise after skipping a patch that just happened to be the last.
It also makes using 'w' in the interactive UI more comfortable, since you do get
a chance to review the patches you'll actually be acting on before launching
missiles.

It makes the interactive UI change, so it *will* break scripts that rely on
its stability, including our own tests. We can either:
-tell the users to live with that
-disable it with a specific flag
-disable it with --pipe <- this gets my vote
-disable it if we manage to notice we are not interacting with a console (how?)

I'm not screening yet, since it needs a rewrite of quite a few tests, and/or a
decision on the previous point.
