[PATCH v2 2/3] sequencer: run auto maintenance once a sequence is done

From: Thomas Bachem <redacted> The apply backend of "git rebase" runs "git maintenance run --auto" from finish_rebase() once it has applied its patches. The merge backend, "git cherry-pick" and "git revert" do not run it when they finish. They create their commits in process, and only the "git commit" they spawn for an edited message or a resolved conflict, the "git merge" a "rebase -r" spawns and an exec command start it, in the middle of the sequence. Run it where the sequencer finishes, so that every sequence ends the way the apply backend does, and so that the next commit can keep it out of the commands a sequence spawns.
