Problem

Direct ":Forge pr edit " can still show the current local branch in compose metadata instead of the PR head branch.

That makes the edit buffer metadata misleading when the local checkout does not match the PR head context.

Expected

The PR edit compose flow should show the actual PR head/base metadata for the PR being edited, not whatever local branch happens to be checked out.

Fixed on main by the direct PR edit metadata update in #203, which uses fetched PR head/base details instead of the current local branch context.
