Fix upstream_commitish_search API
upstream_commitish_search used to return a commit. If it succeeded The caller could find the tag in $tried[-1]. Both callers relied on this unpleasant and error-prone API. In 0bb8e2a87e3c8b5be0fce5c2491b292e9273056e Dgit::upstream_commitish_search: fail if more than one tag exists the algorithm was changed to keep looking, so it can reject ambiguous situations. The result is that $tried[-1] is entirely wrong in the success case. (This is spotted by the tagupl-baredebian test.) It would have been possible to fix this by making upstream_commitish_search synthesise a suitable return value for putting in $tried, but that is absurd. Instead give this function a sensible calling convention. It now returns a list of the tag name (for messages etc.) and the commitish (for use). Change both call sites.
