git-revert: record the parent against which a revert was made

As described in Documentation/howto/revert-a-faulty-merge.txt, re-merging
from a previously reverted a merge of a side branch may need a revert of
the revert beforehand.  Record against which parent the revert was made in
the commit, so that later the user can figure out what went on.
