In the process of automating the git branch creation based on fedmsg
message we can no longer rely on passing a -s/--source branch argument
to the mkbranch script.
As decided in https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/5931 the branches
will be created with the first commit of the master branch.
This commit thus drops the use of -s/--source and SRC_BRANCH in favor of
creating the branch with the first commit of the master branch:
git branch --no-track $BRANCH `git rev-list --max-parents=0 master`
With this change, the upload CGI script will start preferring uploads
hashed as sha512, but still accept md5 as a fallback.
The message emitted on fedmsg is unchanged, because doing so would break
it. We're going to fix that later though.

... as much as possible.
The point of this patch is to make it easier to move away from md5 in a
subsequent patch, without having one monster change which would be
impossible to review.
Some md5 stuff remains hardcoded, because changing it at this point
would break compatibility.

This will make it easier to move away from md5 for the source tarballs.
It shouldn't cause any problem anyway, as Fedora runs this on EL 6 in
production, and EL 7 in staging.
We already use the update hook for gitolite.
This introduces a new update hook, which merely chains the gitolite one,
and a new one to block pushes to badly named branches.
The new hook was written originally by Till Maas.
