[feature] Make vcs status --hide show when branch diverged from their remote

[mikaelarguedas]

If it is of any interest I can try to take a shot at it. For the git client for example, we could apply something like:

-            cmd = [GitClient._executable, 'status', '-s']
+            cmd = [GitClient._executable, 'status', '-s', '-b']
             if command.quiet:
                 cmd += ['--untracked-files=no']
             result = self._run_command(cmd)
-            if result['returncode'] or not result['output']:
+            if result['returncode'] or ('\n' not in result['output'] and 'ahead' not in result['output'] and 'behind' not in result['output']):
+                result['output'] = ''

Not sure how it would work for locales though. Didn't look at other vcs systems to see if something similar can be done easily

I have created PR #36 to implement this improved behavior without relying on the output. It would be great if you could try the modified version from source and report if it addresses your use case.

Tried with all the cases I use status --hide:

• unstaged changes
• staged changes
• ahead
• behind
• diverged (ahead and behind)

Works fine for all cases 👍 🎉 thanks!
