Remo Senekowitsch b605639c49 cli: add redo command
This is the natural counterpart of `jj undo`. Adding `jj redo` closes
the last gap in functionality to the "undo" features of typical GUI
applications. This is much more intuitive to new users and useful than
the previous undo semantics. (Which are preserved as `jj op revert`.)
