'git replace' parses the revision arguments when it creates replacements
(so that a sha1 can be abbreviated, e.g.) but not when deleting
replacements.

This sucks.

Make it parse the argument to 'replace -d' in the same way.

Just in case someone lost the replacement object before deleting the
replacement, take the argument literally if it can not be resolved to a
full sha1.
