[PATCH v2 3/8] pull: abort if --ff-only is given and fast-forwarding is impossible

From: Alex Henrie <redacted>

The warning about pulling without specifying how to reconcile divergent
branches says that after setting pull.rebase to true, --ff-only can
still be passed on the command line to require a fast-forward. Make that
actually work.
