vcs: introduce 'branches' attribute on changesets, making it possible for Git to show multiple branches for a changeset

Mercurial changesets will always have have exactly one branch (which might be
"default"). The VCS data model was the same.

Git allows for a changeset to have 0 or more branches ... and possibly one of
them as active. The right data model is thus to have an enumerable of branches.

We thus add a 'branches' attribute and use it where applicable.

The existing 'branch' attribute used some heuristics to decide which branch use
as "the" branch ... and in some places code (and tests) rely on that. We thus
keep that old method, knowing that some of its uses probably should move to
'branches'.

The code for retrieving Git branches is based on work by Dominik Ruf.
.. _backup:

====================
Backing up Kallithea
====================


Settings
--------

Just copy your .ini file, it contains all Kallithea settings.


Whoosh index
------------

The Whoosh index is located in the ``data/index`` directory where you installed
Kallithea, i.e., the same place where the ini file is located


Database
--------

When using sqlite just copy kallithea.db.
Any other database engine requires a manual backup operation.

A database backup will contain all gathered statistics.
