Bug Description

Starting up a bisection session with bzr bisect can be a bit unclear. It would be nice if bisect start took an optional revision range and bisected within that range:

* `bzr bisect start revA..revB` would be equivalent to `bzr bisect start; bzr bisect no -rrevA; bzr bisect yes -rrevB`
* `bzr bisect start revA..` would be equivalent to `bzr bisect start; bzr bisect no -rrevA`
* `bzr bisect start ..revB` would equivalent to `bzr bisect start; bzr bisect yes -rrevB`

Using revisionspec syntax would probably be good here.

Currently "bzr bisect yes/no -rrevno" also changes to revno. This can be a bit annoying since it can take some time on a bigger tree. Would be better to just give a range and run at the same time.

This should also work with bzr bisect run
