Repository: python/cherry-picker

Issue:
cherry_picker hardcodes the name of the python/cpython.git repo
`cherry_picker` needs an option to specify the `git remote` name for the CPython repo.
Currently it is hardcoded to "upstream" or "origin", and can't be used if a meaningful name like "python" is used
E.g.
```
~/repos/cpython$ git remote -v
python	git@github.com:python/cpython.git (fetch)
python	git@github.com:python/cpython.git (push)
mine	git@github.com:markshannon/cpython.git (fetch)
mine	git@github.com:markshannon/cpython.git (push)
```
