Update test cases for the new option, and document its usage
and update related references.
- t/t5533-push-cas.sh:
Update test cases for "compare-and-swap" when used along with
"--force-if-includes" helps mitigate overwrites when remote
refs are updated in the background; allows forced updates when
changes from remote are integrated locally.
- Documentation:
Add reference for the new option, configuration setting
("push.useForceIfIncludes") and advise messages.

+This option enables a check that verifies if the tip of the
