For PushUpdate, I took some of the phrasing from
https://libgit2.org/libgit2/#HEAD/type/git_push_update

Before looking at the code, I didn't realize that the functions returning None means the reference name is not UTF-8, as opposed to the reference not existing.

(I wish the return value for ..._refname functions would just be Result<&str, UTFDecodeError>, but that would be a breaking change.)

For PushNegotiation and push_negotiation, only the latter has docs accessible via docs.rs, but its docstring was less helpful. See also the commit description.

This was motivated by the observations that:

- The [`PushNegotiation` docstring] was previously much more informative
  than the docstring for `push_negotiation`.

- The `PushNegotiation` docstring does not seem to be accessible via
  https://docs.rs/git2/0.18.3/git2/index.html. Only the less helpful
docstring is accessible at
https://docs.rs/git2/0.18.3/git2/struct.RemoteCallbacks.html#method.push_negotiation.

[`PushNegotiation` docstring]: rust-lang@920c838#diff-ccd8cf48c67bd6cc71379f93a6b51abdb10954497a0db353908a7cf20995ef61R92-R99

I pushed a small change to fix the indentation in the documentation.
