Add support for multiple push URLs in Git repositories

Enables pushing to multiple remotes (e.g., GitHub + GitLab mirrors)
by configuring multiple push URLs using multiline syntax, consistent
with version-overrides and ignores patterns.

Implementation:
- config.py: Add parse_multiline_list() to parse multiline pushurl values
- config.py: Detect and store multiple pushurls as list with backward compat
- vcs/git.py: Update git_set_pushurl() to use --add flag for additional URLs
- First pushurl set without --add, subsequent ones with --add

Configuration example:
```ini
[my-package]
url = https://github.com/org/repo.git
pushurl =
    git@github.com:org/repo.git
    git@gitlab.com:org/repo.git
    git@bitbucket.org:org/repo.git
```

Backward compatibility:
- Single pushurl: Works unchanged (no pushurls list created)
- Multiple pushurls: New multiline syntax (pushurls list created)
- First pushurl stored in pushurl key for backward compat
- Smart threading logic unchanged (checks for pushurl presence)

Tests:
- test_config_parse_multiple_pushurls: Config parsing validation
- test_git_set_pushurl_multiple: Git command sequence verification
- test_git_checkout_with_multiple_pushurls: End-to-end integration

All 197 tests pass (194 existing + 3 new).
All linting checks pass.

Documentation updated in README.md and CHANGES.md.

 ## 5.0.2 (2025-10-23)
 
+- Feature: Git repositories can now specify multiple push URLs using multiline syntax in the `pushurl` configuration option. This enables pushing to multiple remotes (e.g., GitHub + GitLab mirrors) automatically. Syntax follows the same multiline pattern as `version-overrides` and `ignores`. Example: `pushurl =` followed by indented URLs on separate lines. When `git push` is run in the checked-out repository, it will push to all configured pushurls sequentially, mirroring Git's native multi-pushurl behavior. Backward compatible with single pushurl strings.
+  [jensens]
 - Fix #70: HTTP-referenced requirements/constraints files are now properly cached and respected in offline mode. Previously, offline mode only skipped VCS operations but still fetched HTTP URLs. Now mxdev caches all HTTP content in `.mxdev_cache/` during online mode and reuses it during offline mode, enabling true offline operation. This fixes the inconsistent behavior where `-o/--offline` didn't prevent all network activity.
   [jensens]
 - Improvement: Enhanced help text for `-n/--no-fetch`, `-f/--fetch-only`, and `-o/--offline` command-line options to better explain their differences and when to use each one.

+##### Multiple Push URLs
+
+You can configure a package to push to multiple remotes (e.g., mirroring to GitHub and GitLab):
+
+```ini
+[my-package]
+url = https://github.com/org/repo.git
+pushurl =
+    git@github.com:org/repo.git
+    git@gitlab.com:org/repo.git
+    git@bitbucket.org:org/repo.git
+```
+
+When you run `git push` in the checked-out repository, Git will push to all configured pushurls sequentially.
+
+**Note:** Multiple pushurls only work with the `git` VCS type. This mirrors Git's native behavior where a remote can have multiple push URLs.
+
 ### Usage
 
 Run `mxdev` (for more options run `mxdev --help`).
