merge: always use other, not remote, in user prompts

Now that we store and display merge labels in user prompts (not just
conflict markets), we should rely on labels to clarify the two sides of a
merge operation (hg merge, hg update, hg rebase etc).

"remote" is not a great name here, as it conflates "remote" as in "remote
server" with "remote" as in "the side of the merge that's further away". In
cases where you're merging the "wrong way" around, remote can even be the
"local" commit that you're merging with something pulled from the remote
server.
