interactive -p: add new `--auto-advance` flag
When using the interactive add, reset, stash or checkout machinery, we do not have the option of reworking with a file when selecting hunks, because the session automatically advances to the next file or ends if we have just one file. Introduce the flag `--auto-advance` which auto advances by default, when interactively selecting patches with the '--patch' option. However, the `--no-auto-advance` option does not auto advance, thereby allowing users the option to rework with files.
