push: start warning upcoming default change for push.default

In preparation for flipping the default to the "simple" mode from the "matching" mode that is the historical default, start warning users when they rely on unconfigured "git push" to default to the "matching" mode. Also, advertise for 'simple' where 'current' and 'upstream' are advised. Signed-off-by: Matthieu Moy <Matthieu.Moy@imag.fr> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
