On a mirror client we don't prompt for user.name,user.email as the
data is only necessary if you will make new commits. On a re-init
we were testing the command line option, not the existing IsMirror
property from the manifest configuration file.

This allows the user to run "repo init -u" again after an
initial attempt failed due to an invalid URL.

Instead of a stack trace ending in origin/master not existing we
now tell the user the manifest url is invalid if 'git fetch' has
failed out early.

We now correctly support re-initializing an existing client to point
to a different branch of the same manifest repository, effectively
allowing the client to switch the baseline it is operating on.

Simply setting repo.mirror true doesn't make a client into a mirror.
The on-disk layout is completely wrong for a mirror repository,
and until we fix our layout for a non-mirror client to more closely
resemble the upstream we can't do anything to easily turn on or
turn off the mirror status flag.

If a client was created with "repo init --mirror" then there are
no working directories present, and no files checked out. Using
a command like "repo status" in this context makes no sense, and
actually throws back a Pytyon traceback at the console when the
underlying commands fail out.
We now tag commands with the MirrorSafeCommand type if they are
able to be executed within a mirror directory safely. Using a
command in a mirror which lacks this base class results in a
useful error letting you know the command isn't supported.

The mirror option downloads a complete forrest (as described by the
manifest) and creates a replica of the remote repositories rather
than a client working directory. This permits other clients to
sync off the mirror site.
A mirror can be positioned in a "DMZ", where the mirror executes
"repo sync" to obtain changes from the external upstream and
clients inside the protected zone operate off the mirror only,
and therefore do not require direct git:// access to the external
upstream repositories.
