Three polishes to the comment the action posts when a stack update hits conflicts:

  • Gloss the bare commit hash in the git merge step as the target branch as it was just before the merged branch landed, so the user knows what they are merging.
  • Replace git pull origin <branch> with git merge --ff-only origin/<branch>. The preceding git fetch origin already has every ref the steps need, so the pull only fetched the branch a second time.
  • Drop the "I tried to merge ..." opening sentence (and its only helper, format_branch_list_for_text) now that the merge commands carry that context, plus the sub-header it left stranded.

The resolution steps told the user to `git merge <40-char hash>` with no
hint of what that commit is. Gloss it inline as the target branch as it
was just before the merged branch landed.

Also drops the redundant "I tried to merge ..." header sentence and its
only helper, format_branch_list_for_text: the merge commands now carry
that information.

Dropping the intro paragraph had left two headers back to back. The
warning header now leads straight into a one-line lead-in and the steps.

The resolution steps ran `git fetch origin` and then `git pull origin
<branch>`, which fetches the branch a second time. The standalone fetch
already has every ref the later merges need, so update the local branch
with a local fast-forward to the fetched tip.

Since #40 the conflict comment's fast-forward step reads `git merge
--ff-only origin/<branch>`, which assert_conflict_comment_merges picks
up with its `^git merge` grep, so the extracted commands never match the
expected conflict merges. Skip the --ff-only line when extracting.

Also trim the new comments in the fan-out push/retarget/delete sequence.

Since #40 the conflict comment's fast-forward step reads `git merge
--ff-only origin/<branch>`, which `assert_conflict_comment_merges` picks
up with its `^git merge` grep, so the extracted commands never match the
expected conflict merges and the check fails on every conflict scenario.
#40's test tweak only handled the new `# ...` hash gloss, not the new
merge line.

This went unnoticed because `tests.yml` only runs on `pull_request`, so
the breakage only surfaced on the first PR after #40 landed (#42, [run
27235483781](https://github.com/scortexio/autorestack-action/actions/runs/27235483781)).

Fix: skip the `--ff-only` line when extracting merge commands. Verified
green as part of #42's [run
27235912022](https://github.com/scortexio/autorestack-action/actions/runs/27235912022)
before being split out into this PR.
