Often, it is quite interesting to inspect the branch tracked by a given
branch. This patch introduces a nice notation to get at the tracked
branch: 'BEL<branch>' can be used to access that tracked branch.
A special shortcut 'BEL' refers to the branch tracked by the current branch.
Suggested by Pasky and Shawn.
This patch extends the function introduced to handle the nth-last branch
(via the {-<n>} notation); therefore that function name was renamed to
something more general.
