RFR: 2084: Add a `/branch` command similar to `/tag` to create a new branch from a commit

Hi all,

please review this patch that adds a `/branch` commit command. The `/branch` commit command allows an integrator to create a _new_ branch in a repository by adding the comment `/branch <name>` on a commit's web page. The command will check that no branch with the given name exists (i.e. it won't update a branch with that name to that commit).

The implementation is very similar to the `/tag` command, but I don't think it makes sense to try to share code between them. They are both only around 60 lines of code, so trying to share code won't give us much.

I also added a couple of new unit tests.

Thanks,
Erik
