commit: do not lose SQUASH_MSG contents
When concluding a conflicted "git merge --squash", the command
failed to read SQUASH_MSG that was prepared by "git merge", and
showed only the "# Conflicts:" list of conflicted paths.
Place the contents from SQUASH_MSG at the beginning, just like we
show the commit log skeleton first when concluding a normal merge,
and then show the "# Conflicts:" list, to help the user write the
log message for the resulting commit.
