Issue: refactor to simplify & make better git log messages

This starts cleaning up the Issue API.

* Start separating the public API from the internal API.

* Make `Issue::new()` and `Issue::edit_description()` better behaved,
  simpler, reduce code duplication, and also produce better git log
  messages.

* Update `ent` to call the changed `new()` function.

* Add some comments documenting the Issue API.

* `ent new` and `ent edit` now use the editor specified by the EDITOR
  environment variable, if any.  Defaults to `vi` if unspecified.
