Syntax branchname@{upstream} should interpret its argument as a name of
a branch. Add the test to check that it doesn't try to interpret it as a
refname if the branch in question does not exist.

If the branch configured as upstream didn't have a local tracking
branch, git said "Upstream branch not found". We can be more helpful,
and separate the cases when upstream is not configured, and when it is
configured, but the upstream branch is not tracked in a local branch.
The following configuration leads to the second scenario:
[remote "origin"]
url = ...
fetch = refs/heads/master
[branch "master"]
remote = origin
merge = refs/heads/master
'git pull' will work on master, but master@{upstream} is not defined.

Instead of just saying that no upstream exists for such branch,
which is true but not very helpful, check that there's no
refs/heads/barnhc_wiht_tpyo and tell it to the user.

When using @{u} or @{upstream} it is common to omit the branch name,
implying current branch. If the upstream is not configured, the error
message was "No upstream branch found for ''".
When resolving '@{u}', branch_get() is called, which almost always
returns a description of a branch. This allows us to use a branch name
in the error message, even if the user said something like '@{u}'.
The only case when branch_get() returns NULL is when HEAD points to so
something which is not a branch. Of course this also means that no
upstream is configured, but it is better to directly say that HEAD
does not point to a branch.

In preparation for future changes, add tests which show error messages
with @{upstream} in various conditions:
- test branch@{u} with . as remote
- check error message for branch@{u} on a branch with
* no upstream,
* on a branch with a configured upstream which doesn't have a
remote-tracking branch
- check error message for branch@{u} when branch 'branch' does not
exist
- check error message for @{u} without the branch name
Right now the messages are very similar, but various cases can and
will be distinguished.
Note: test_i18ncmp is not used, because currently error output is not
internationalized. test_cmp will be switched to test_i18ncmp in a later
patch, when error messages are internationalized.

(Just like we did for documentation already)
In the process, we change "non-remote branch" to "branch outside the
refs/remotes/ hierarchy" to avoid the ugly "non-remote-tracking branch".
The new formulation actually corresponds to how the code detects this
case (i.e. prefixcmp(refname, "refs/remotes")).
Also, we use 'remote-tracking branch' in generated merge messages (by
merge an fmt-merge-msg).
