sequencer: directly call pick_commits() from complete_action()

Currently, complete_action(), used by builtin/rebase.c to start a new
rebase, calls sequencer_continue() to do it.  Before the former calls
pick_commits(), it

 - calls read_and_refresh_cache() -- this is unnecessary here as we've
   just called require_clean_work_tree() in complete_action()
 - calls read_populate_opts() -- this is unnecessary as we're starting a
   new rebase, so `opts' is fully populated
 - loads the todo list -- this is unnecessary as we've just populated
   the todo list in complete_action()
 - commits any staged changes -- this is unnecessary as we're starting a
   new rebase, so there are no staged changes
 - calls record_in_rewritten() -- this is unnecessary as we're starting
   a new rebase.

This changes complete_action() to directly call pick_commits() to avoid
these unnecessary steps.
