revert: add --ff option to allow fast forward when cherry-picking

As "git merge" fast forwards if possible, it seems sensible to
have such a feature for "git cherry-pick" too, especially as it
could be used in git-rebase--interactive.sh.

Maybe this option could be made the default in the long run, with
another --no-ff option to disable this default behavior, but that
could make some scripts backward incompatible and/or that would
require testing if some GIT_AUTHOR_* environment variables are
set. So we don't do that for now.
