Recent changes to --fixup, adding amend suboption, caused the
--edit flag to be ignored as use_editor was always set to zero.

Restore edit_flag having higher priority than fixup_message when
deciding the value of use_editor by only changing the default
if edit_flag is not set.
Thanks for fixing this

I think it should have moved those last two context lines that set 
`use_editor` to below the part that you are fixing. Then the `use_editor 
= 0` line that you are changing continues to work as before. (As you see 
there are quite a few legacy Yoda conditions in this file, nowadays we 
avoid adding new ones). I'm not sure if it is worth re working this 
patch to do that, but it does have the advantage of only testing 
edit_flag once.

Again I'm not sure it is worth changing it now but for future reference 
this is a rather complicated way of appending to the commit message. The 
test file has an example using set_fake_editor() together with 
FAKE_COMMIT_AMEND just below where you have added this test or you can 
just have

     EDITOR="echo something extra >>" git commit --fixup=HEAD~1 --edit
