rebase: fix fork-point with zero arguments

When no arguments are specified, $switch_to is empty so we end up passing the empty string to "git merge-base --fork-point", which causes an error. git-rebase carries on at this point, but in fact we have failed to apply the fork-point operation. It turns out that the test in t3400 that was meant to test this didn't actually need the fork-point behaviour, so enhance it to make sure that the fork-point is applied correctly. The modified test fails without the change to git-rebase.sh in this patch.
