[PATCH 2/6] remote.c: drop "remote" pointer from "struct branch"

When we create each branch struct, we fill in the
"remote_name" field from the config, and then fill in the
actual "remote" field based on that name. However, it turns
out that nobody really cares about this field. The only two
sites that access it are:
1. git-merge, which uses it to notice when the branch does
not have a remote defined. But we can easily replace this
with looking at remote_name instead.
2. remote.c itself, when setting up the @{upstream} merge
config. But we don't need to save the "remote" for
that; we can just look it up for the duration of the
operation.
Getting rid of it drops one potential source of confusion:
is the value the match for "remote_name", or is it the
remote we would fetch from when on that branch (i.e., does
it fall back to "origin")?
When we add pushremote_name, this question would get even
more confusing, as pushremotes have a more complicated
lookup procedure. It would be nice for the code to be
consistent between the remote and pushremote, and this takes
us one step closer.
