Descrizione

When using `gh stack submit` on a repository cloned from a **fork**, the command attempts to query and submit the stack against the upstream parent repository instead of the fork (or specified default repository).

Since the feature branches only exist on the fork (`origin`), GitHub's GraphQL API rejects the PR creation because the branches do not exist on the target upstream repository, resulting in `Head sha can't be blank` / `Base sha can't be blank`.

Executing `gh repo set-default /` does not alter this behavior.

### Environment
- **OS:** Windows 11 (Git Bash / MINGW64)
- **`gh` version:** `gh version 2.100.0 (2026-09-03)`
- **`gh stack` extension version:** `github/gh-stack v0.1.1`

### Repository Setup
- **origin:** [https://github.com/Hakzai/pokerpulsepro-tauri.git](https://github.com/Hakzai/pokerpulsepro-tauri.git) (Fork)
- **upstream:** [https://github.com/davidelvar/pokerpulsepro-tauri.git](https://github.com/davidelvar/pokerpulsepro-tauri.git) (Parent Repo)
- `gh repo set-default` is explicitly set to `Hakzai/pokerpulsepro-tauri`.

### Steps to Reproduce
1. Clone a fork repository that has an `upstream` remote configured.
2. Create stacked branches locally and push them to `origin`:
a. `main` -> `feature/branch-1` -> `feature/branch-2`
3. Set the default repository using `gh repo set-default Hakzai/pokerpulsepro-tauri`.
4. Run `gh stack submit`.

### Expected Behavior
`gh stack submit` should resolve stacked PRs against the configured default repository (`Hakzai/pokerpulsepro-tauri`) or provide cross-repository fork support by specifying the head branch owner/ref.

### Actual Behavior
The command targets `davidelvar/pokerpulsepro-tauri` and fails with:

```log
⚠ failed to create PR for feature/add-brazil-real-currency: creating PR: GraphQL: Head sha can't be blank, Base sha can't be blank, No commits between main and feature/add-brazil-real-currency, Head ref must be a branch (createPullRequest)
```

#### Debug Output (`GH_DEBUG=1 gh stack submit`)
Relevant log excerpts showing API requests targeting the upstream repo instead of the fork:

```log
* Request to https://api.github.com/repos/davidelvar/pokerpulsepro-tauri/stacks?per_page=100&page=1
...
[git.exe push origin --force-with-lease=refs/heads/feature/add-brazil-real-currency:... refs/heads/feature/add-brazil-real-currency:refs/heads/feature/add-brazil-real-currency]
* Request to https://api.github.com/graphql

```

#### Git Config
Git config is pointing correctly the upstream to `davidelvar/pokerpulsepro-tauri` and the origin to the fork at `Hakzai/pokerpulsepro-tauri`.

Direzione di ricerca

Inizia dal punto di ingresso `gh stack submit` e segui la risoluzione del repository, inclusi `gh-stack.remote` e il repository predefinito configurato, fino alla chiamata GraphQL `createPullRequest`. Riproduci il problema con la configurazione del fork e `GH_DEBUG=1`. Il lavoro è completato quando la creazione di PR impilate punta al fork o supporta esplicitamente il repository head previsto, senza errori relativi a SHA vuoti.
