Get permalinks for the local HEAD not the HEAD of the remote branch

[wearhere]

On GitHub, permalinks reference the HEAD of the remote branch since that’s what you’re looking at when you request the permalink (https://help.github.com/en/articles/getting-permanent-links-to-files). In Sublime, it makes more sense for permalinks to reference your local HEAD since that’s what you’re looking at when you run a permalink command.

Referencing the local HEAD lets the user run permalink commands with a commit checked out rather than a branch; or having checked out a branch that they've just created, if the user has neither added commits to that branch nor pushed the branch to the remote.

If the user has added commits to such a branch without pushing them to the remote, then the link will 404 on GitHub. Then again, previously, if the user had pushed the branch to the remote—just not the most recent commits on the branch—then we would have created an out-of-date permalink, and this would arguably have been a worse failure because it would be silent.

At some future point, it might be nice to detect, locally, if a permalink was going to 404, and show an error message before the user went to GitHub.

Referencing the local HEAD also fixes a bug in the previous implementation where we’d only successfully fetch the remote HEAD if the name of the remote branch was exactly the same as the local branch, since we executed git rev-parse <remote_branch> at line 508 without prefixing remote_branch with the name of the remote.

Tests:

• [x] “Open Remote URL in Browser” works if the current branch has been pushed to the remote
• [x] “Open Remote URL in Browser” shows an error alert if the current branch has not been pushed to the remote
• [x] “Open Remote URL in Browser” shows an error alert if a commit is checked out rather than a branch
• [x] “Open Remote URL in Browser (permalink)” works if the current branch has been pushed to the remote
• [x] “Open Remote URL in Browser (permalink)” works if a commit is checked out vs. a branch
• [x] “Open Remote URL in Browser (permalink)” works if a branch is checked out and the user has not pushed that branch but has also not added commits to that branch
• [x] “Open Remote URL in Browser (permalink)” results in a 404 on GitHub if the user has added commits to a branch and not pushed them to GitHub
• [x] “Open Remote URL in Browser (permalink)” shows an error alert if the user has not pushed their local branch and has more than one remote configured
• [x] “Open Remote URL in Browser (master)” works regardless of what’s checked out above

Hi! I'm so sorry it has taken me years to respond to you. If you're still interested in this would you mind testing it again against the latest HEAD and fixing the minor conflict in the README?

(I know I've neglected this repo...I haven't used Sublime Text in years. :( )
