git-buildpackage: Add upstream-tree option

to specify where the upstream tarball should be created from. The
default is to create the upstream tarball from the exact tag and fail
otherwise. To create the upstream tarball from the tip of the upstream
branch use 'branch'.

Based on a patch by Ricardo Salveti de Araujo
