use resolve_tag here as well to make it less confusing.

Using rev-parse on FETCH_HEAD^ as resolve_remote_tag uses ls-remote which can't deal with ^

This is now local rtagrevf="$(${GIT} rev-parse --revs-only "FETCH_HEAD^" 2>/dev/null)"

While umpf was explicitly developed with multiple developers adding
utags and sharing topic branches in mind, it is less than ideal when
there are multiple developers working on the same topic branches.
And it frequently leads to one of two issues:
- The branch is pushed before the utag is accepted into the BSP
repository and other developers get an unexpected addition to
their umpf
- The branch is not pushed after the utag is accepted into the BSP
repository and other developers get an unexpected removal from
their umpf
Every time this happens, it wastes a bit of time to identify what went
wrong and thus a solution built into umpf is appropriate:
- CI will call umpf --remote=downstream --force push $BSP/series.inc
when a PR touching a useries is accepted
- Developers can call umpf pull to synchronize their topic branches
or to find out when difference they have to the now upstream
version
