This commit adds support for a 'pre-push' hook that can be called before
a `git push` command.

It takes no arguments currently, but if the .git/hooks/pre-push script
exists and is executable, it will be called before the 'git push' command
and will stop the push process if it does not exit with a 0 status.

This hook can be overridden by passing in the --no-verify or -n option to
git push.  Documentation and tests have been updated to reflect the change.

Would you care to describe what this is useful for (either in
documentation, to help potential users, or at least in the commit log,
so we know there is a need that is not otherwise fulfilled)?
