ifcgit: pre-fill branch name when switching to a remote branch tip

When a remote branch tip is checked out (resulting in detached HEAD),
the new-branch name field is now pre-filled with the local equivalent
of the remote branch name (generating a unique suffix if that name is
already taken), so the commit button is immediately usable.

See #7580
