Comment:

 Add support for fetching from "virtual branch".

 Prior to this patch, buildslave tried to retrieve revision from:
 1) local repository,
 2) remote repository (from regular branch).

 With this patch, buildslave will try also (assuming that it received
 change from GerritChangeSource):
 3) remote repository (from "virtual branch").

 We could probably skip 2) in case of changes received from
 GerritChangeSource, but I didn't play enough with Gerrit+Git
 to be 100% sure about that.

 This fixes #1719 for Gerrit, but not for other code review systems.
