Descripción

`gh stack submit` exits with an error when the git remote URL uses a custom SSH host alias (e.g. `github.com-work`) instead of the literal `github.com` hostname. There is no flag to override the repository, so `submit` is unusable in this configuration.

## Steps to reproduce

1. Configure `~/.ssh/config` with a host alias (common for multi-account setups):
```
Host github.com-work
HostName github.com
User git
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_ed25519_work
```

2. Clone using the alias:
```
git clone git@github.com-work:org/repo.git
cd repo
```
`git remote get-url origin` → `git@github.com-work:org/repo.git`

3. Initialize a stack and submit:
```
git checkout -b layer-1 && git commit --allow-empty -m "layer 1"
git checkout -b layer-2 && git commit --allow-empty -m "layer 2"
git checkout layer-1
gh stack init --adopt -b main layer-1 layer-2
gh stack submit --draft
```

## Actual result

```
✗ failed to create GitHub client: determining repository: unable to determine current
repository, none of the git remotes configured for this repository point to a known
GitHub host
```

The `--remote origin` flag and `GH_HOST=github.com` env var do not help — the error
is identical with both.

## Expected result

`gh stack submit` pushes the branches and opens draft PRs, the same as it would with a `git@github.com:org/repo.git` remote.

## What I tried

- `gh stack submit --remote origin` — same error
- `GH_HOST=github.com gh stack submit` — same error
- `GH_REPO=org/repo gh stack submit` — gets past host detection, but then pushes to
`git@github.com:org/repo.git` instead of the configured alias, so the push fails
with a key-agent rejection

## Workaround

Push branches manually and create PRs one at a time:

```bash
git push origin layer-1 layer-2
gh pr create --draft --repo org/repo --base main --head layer-1 --title "layer 1"
gh pr create --draft --repo org/repo --base layer-1 --head layer-2 --title "layer 2"
```

## Environment

```
gh version 2.89.0 (nixpkgs)
gh extension: gh stack (github/gh-stack)
OS: macOS
Remote URL format: git@github.com-:org/repo.git
```

Línea de trabajo

Comienza con las rutas de detección del repositorio y de push de gh stack submit, reproduciendo el fallo con el alias SSH documentado github.com-work y los casos --remote origin y GH_HOST. Se considera completado cuando submit reconoce el repositorio y hace push mediante el alias configurado antes de abrir los PR de borrador, coincidiendo con el comportamiento literal de github.com.
