pull: allow interactive rebase with --rebase=interactive
A couple of years ago, I found the need to collaborate on topic branches that were rebased all the time, and I really needed to see what I was rebasing when pulling, so I introduced an interactively-rebasing pull. The way builtin pull works, this change also supports the value 'interactive' for the 'branch.<name>.rebase' config variable, which is a neat thing because users can now configure given branches for interactively-rebasing pulls without having to type out the complete `--rebase=interactive` option every time they pull.
