[PATCH v5 22/29] rebase: persist --trailer options across restarts

From: Li Chen <hidden>
Date: 2025-10-22 05:44:05
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

t3440 showed rebase -m loses trailers after conflicts.
Each --continue spawns a fresh replay_opts without trailer_args.
Serialize them into rebase-merge/trailer so new runs reload them.
This keeps the user requested trailers intact when resuming.
