The confirmed commit is the first <commit> that includes a <confirmed>
parameter.
The 2nd - Nth <commit> are extending the first commit operation.  The
server is still
obligated to revert the running config for the first commit (if it is
canceled or timed out).
This obligation is not removed because the commit is extended.  It is only
removed
if a confirming commit is received.
