This allows git-cherry-pick and git-revert to properly identify
themselves in the resulting reflog entries.  Earlier they were
recorded as what git-commit has done.
Not sure how I missed that one when I introduced GIT_REFLOG_ACTION,
but thanks for finding and fixing it.  :-)
The fact that it went unnoticed for this long time shows how we
lack proper tools to read the message part of the reflog,
although we use @{N} and @{ago} notation every day and some
people might even rely on it.  I'd like to do something about
it, and my earlier "show-branch --reflog" enhancement series
(I'll park that in 'next' for now) was my attempt for that goal.

I found this out by accident while working on it.
