Subject: [PATCH] merge script: improve log message subject

 - point out remote-tracking branches as "remote branch
   'upstream/master'";
 - avoid misleading log messages when a tag and branch
   share a name.

This approximates the builtin merge command's behavior well
enough to pass the relevant tests.

Based roughly on v1.6.4.2~10^2 (merge: indicate remote tracking
branches in merge message, 2009-08-09) and v1.6.4.2~10^2~1 (merge: fix
incorrect merge message for ambiguous tag/branch, 2009-08-09).
