git: Use switch instead of checkout if available

For git versions that support it, the aliases will use the newer
`switch` instruction instead of `checkout` for its use cases.
Creating a new branch through `gcb` is for example done by
`git switch -c` instead of the older `git checkout -b`.

Additionally streamlined git version checking to be a little faster and
to unify its approach on posix sh, bash and zsh instead of utilizing
individual checking functions.
