Hi!

AFAIK, last known-good revision + first known-bad revision is enough
information to determine what to try next. At each interation (including
the first one), these are specified either by the user ("svn-bisect bad xxx")
or obtained from "svn info" output ("svn-bisect bad").

This CLI is inspired by the one in git. All in all, it seems to be designed
so that the implementation can be made without much complexity.
