Add '...' operator for revisions

'A...B' is a shortcut for 'A B --not $(git-merge-base --all A B)'.
This XOR-like operation is called symmetric difference in set
theory.

The symbol '...' has been chosen because it's rather similar to the
existing '..' operator and the somewhat more natural caret ('^') is
already taken.

A special notation <commit1>..<commit2> can be used as a
short-hand for {caret}<commit1> <commit2>.
Another special notation is <commit1>...<commit2> which is useful for
merges. The resulting set of commits is the symmetric difference
between the two operands. The following two commands are equivalent:
------------
$ git-rev-list A B --not $(git-merge-base --all A B)
$ git-rev-list A...B
------------

--remove-empty::
Stop when a given path disappears from the tree.
--not::
Reverses the meaning of the '{caret}' prefix (or lack
thereof) for all following revision specifiers, up to
the next `--not`.
--all::
Pretend as if all the refs in `$GIT_DIR/refs/` are
listed on the command line as <commit>.
