[PATCH] Fix various limitations of git-backport.py.

[Martin Liška]

I've just tested the script and I'm going to install the patch
to all active branches.

contrib/ChangeLog:

	* git-backport.py: The script did 'git co HEAD~' when
	there was no modified ChangeLog file in a successful
	git cherry pick.
	Run cherry-pick --continue without editor.
