checkout: learn to respect checkout.guess
The current behavior of git checkout/switch is that --guess is currently enabled by default. However, some users may not wish for this to happen automatically. Instead of forcing users to specify --no-guess manually each time, teach these commands the checkout.guess configuration variable that gives users the option to set a default behavior. Teach the completion script to recognize the new config variable and disable DWIM logic if it is set to false.
