If a pull request contains more than one commit, it can be landed either by
squashing into one commit or by rebasing all the commits, or a mix of the two.
Generally, a collaborator should land a pull request by squashing. If a pull
request has more than one self-contained subsystem commits, a collaborator
may land it as several commits.

All commits should be self-contained, meaning every commit should pass all
tests. This makes it much easier when bisecting to find a breaking change.
