sha1_name: implement @{push} shorthand

In a triangular workflow, each branch may have two distinct
points of interest: the @{upstream} that you normally pull
from, and the destination that you normally push to. There
isn't a shorthand for the latter, but it's useful to have.

For instance, you may want to know which commits you haven't
pushed yet:

  git log @{push}..

Or as a more complicated example, imagine that you normally
pull changes from origin/master (which you set as your
@{upstream}), and push changes to your own personal fork
(e.g., as myfork/topic). You may push to your fork from
multiple machines, requiring you to integrate the changes
from the push destination, rather than upstream. With this
patch, you can just do:

  git rebase @{push}

rather than typing out the full name.

The heavy lifting is all done by branch_get_push; here we
just wire it up to the "@{push}" syntax.
