D6125: revert: option to choose what to keep, not what to discard

  I understand that it's not at all clear if we want to make this change by default, but I'd appreciate if we can queue this patch as is so I and others can easily start testing it (it's pretty deep inside `_performrevert()`, so it's hard to do it cleanly in an extension). I don't believe I'm changing the behavior for anyone who has not set the new config.
