Bug Description

When you do `bzr switch` from one branch to another, the nick of your checkout doesn't change. This is bad - you generally don't notice until several revisions later when you do `bzr log` of `bzr viz`and discover it is all wrong but too late to do anything about it.

Some notes -
 - implicit nicks should be drawing from the branch anyway
 - the implicit nick of a bound branch should draw from the url of the
master
 - if there is an explicit nick of a bound branch, it should be changed
to the nick of the new master when switching (and probably done at
bind() time for consistency)
 - switching should not create an explicit nick where there was none
before
