Bug Description
The current branch edit forms don't make sense for package branches. They do a lot of checking to handle the case where you move a branch from one project to another, or from being a junk branch to being a project branch etc. There's also no field for selecting a source package.
All of this is symptomatic of the old world order where checking product is None was good enough to handle basically everything.
We should either make the branch edit forms provide a way of selecting a source package, and handle that appropriately, or we should just remove the ability to move a branch between products, junk and source packages. The latter might be the most expedient way for now.

The attached branch takes the more expedient option of removing the branch project / junk / package field from the edit form completely.
