A new wizard provides convenient fetching of changes from Gerrit

Actions for Push and Fetch using upstream configuration

A couple of new actions (Team > Push to Upstream and Team > Fetch from Upstream) allows to directly push to and fetch from the remote stored in the upstream configuration of the currently checked out branch without the need to go through a wizard each time.
