revert: Don't implicitly stomp pending sequencer operation

Protect the user from forgetting about a pending sequencer operation
by immediately erroring out when an existing cherry-pick or revert
operation is in progress like:

$ git cherry-pick foo
... conflict ...
$ git cherry-pick moo
error: .git/sequencer already exists
hint: A cherry-pick or revert is in progress
hint: Use --reset to forget about it
fatal: cherry-pick failed

A naive version of this would break the following established ways of
working:

$ git cherry-pick foo
... conflict ...
$ git reset --hard  # I actually meant "moo" when I said "foo"
$ git cherry-pick moo

$ git cherry-pick foo
... conflict ...
$ git commit # commit the resolution
$ git cherry-pick moo # New operation

However, the previous patches "reset: Make reset remove the sequencer
state" and "revert: Remove sequencer state when no commits are
pending" make sure that this does not happen.
