pull should always --remember

Originally, we made 'bzr pull' keep the previous parent unless
'--remember' is supplied.
Now that we are changing bzr pull so that it defaults to a form of
--overwrite, I would like to see the default switch back to
'--remember'. Either that, or --overwrite automatically supplies --remember.

Basically, the reason we got rid of it, was because you might pull a
branch just to get their changes. But since we are changing convergence,
I think only merge will really be used in that situation.

It might just be me, where I keep a mirror of just about every branch I
come across, which involves copying an older branch, and then 'bzr pull
--overwrite --remember'
Its just a lot to type all the time.

Maybe I'll write a plugin which knows my mirror hierarchy, and does all
the steps for me. Hm....
