The output of this command is confusing. It is not clear which of the
hashes printed is that of the revision and which one is the respective
head commit.
Further, the hash is omitted on the initial revision, adding confusion.
Further, the terminology of "revised" vs. "updated" is confusing.
This rewrites `timeline.rs` to drop the distinction between various
revisions (in wording, the small icon is still different) and cleans up
the output.
Attention is paid to alignment of the output. Now all verbs of updates
("accepted", "rejected", "reviewed", "merged") are aligned, and authors
("… by …") are also aligned.
The rewrite itself is not for better code quality or readability.
Note that all the code in this file only accessed via one `fn` by one
callsite in the implementation of `rad patch`.

When contributing to another's project, it is common for the contribution to be of many commits and involve a discussion with the project's maintainer. This is supported via Radicle's patches.
Here we give a brief overview for using patches in our hypothetical car scenario. It turns out instructions containing the power requirements were missing from the project.
$ git checkout -b flux-capacitor-power
$ touch REQUIREMENTS
Here the instructions are added to the project's README for 1.21 gigawatts and commit the changes to git.
$ git add REQUIREMENTS
$ git commit -v -m "Define power requirements"
[flux-capacitor-power 3e674d1] Define power requirements
1 file changed, 0 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-)
create mode 100644 REQUIREMENTS
Once the code is ready, we open (or create) a patch with our changes for the project.
$ git push rad -o patch.message="Define power requirements" -o patch.message="See details." HEAD:refs/patches
✓ Patch aa45913e757cacd46972733bddee5472c78fa32a opened

* [new reference] HEAD -> refs/patches
It will now be listed as one of the project's open patches.
