Add a command to unwind the effects of fetch by moving the rev_map

I just realized this morning that I didn't do any special handling for
bad revision input.  I will submit a revised patch.  In the mean time
I would still like feedback on the concept and the docs.

Known issues:

1.  Garbage revision input is accepted and prints several internal errors
before bombing out.  The repo is not harmed, though.

2.  Huge revision numbers cause git-svn to spin for quite a while because
I used the pre-existing find_rev_before which is a linear search.

3.  Without --parent it should probably fail for a nonexistent rev rather
than automatically find_rev_before..
