bookmarks: suggest 'push -B FOO' when a potentially new remote head has a local bookmark

If a new head is prevented from being pushed and has a local bookmark this change suggests
using 'push -B FOO' since this is somewhat safer than using force.

This does not consider if there are unsynced changes, or if the localbook exists
remotely but cannot be updated (ie. if it is divergent).  In these cases pull and/or merge
might be a better suggestion.

I think I'm +1 on this series. Kevin?
