Implement git remote rename

The new rename subcommand does the followings:

1) Renames the remote.foo configuration section to remote.bar

2) Updates the remote.bar.fetch refspecs

3) Updates the branch.*.remote settings

4) Renames the tracking branches: renames the normal refs and rewrites
   the symrefs to point to the new refs.
