remote.c: untangle error logic in branch_get_upstream

Browse Source 
The error-diagnosis logic in branch_get_upstream was copied
straight from sha1_name.c in the previous commit. However,
because we check all error cases and upfront and then later
diagnose them, the logic is a bit tangled. In particular:

  - if branch->merge[0] is NULL, we may end up dereferencing
    it for an error message (in practice, it should never be
    NULL, so this is probably not a triggerable bug).

  - We may enter the code path because branch->merge[0]->dst
    is NULL, but we then start our error diagnosis by
    checking whether our local branch exists. But that is
    only relevant to diagnosing missing merge config, not a
    missing tracking ref; our diagnosis may hide the real
    problem.

Instead, let's just use a sequence of "if" blocks to check
for each error type, diagnose it, and return NULL.
