rebase -i: handle core.commentChar=auto

When 84c9dc2 (commit: allow core.commentChar=auto for character auto
selection, 2014-05-17) extended the core.commentChar functionality to
allow for the value 'auto', it forgot that rebase -i was already taught to
handle core.commentChar, and in turn forgot to let rebase -i handle that
new value gracefully.
