everything: Rename branches to bookmarks

Jujutsu's branches do not behave like Git branches, which is a major
hurdle for people adopting it from Git. They rather behave like
Mercurial's (hg) bookmarks. 

We've had multiple discussions about it in the last ~1.5 years about this rename in the Discord, 
where multiple people agreed that this _false_ familiarity does not help anyone. Initially we were 
reluctant to do it but overtime, more and more users agreed that `bookmark` was a better for name 
the current mechanism. This may be hard break for current `jj branch` users, but it will immensly 
help Jujutsu's future, by defining it as our first own term. The `[experimental-moving-branches]` 
config option is currently left alone, to force not another large config update for
users, since the last time this happened was when `jj log -T show` was removed, which immediately 
resulted in breaking users and introduced soft deprecations.

This name change will also make it easier to introduce Topics (#3402) as _topological branches_ 
with a easier model. 

This is a pure mechanical change done via LSP, ripgrep and sed with some manual fixups.

 * `jj untrack` has been renamed to `jj file untrack`.
 
+* `jj branch` has been deprecated in favor of `jj bookmark`.
+
+  **Rationale:** Jujutsu's branches don't behave like Git branches, which a 
+  confused many newcomers, as they expected a similar behavior given the name.
+  We've renamed them to "bookmarks" to match the actual behavior, as we think
+  that describes them better, and they also behave similar to Mercurial's 
+  bookmarks.

 ### New features
 
 * Add new boolean config knob, `ui.movement.edit` for controlling the behaviour
