[PATCH v2 1/3] stash: It looks like a stash, but doesn't quack like a stash...

In particular, a stash created with git stash create cannot be used as an argument to git stash branch because of two separate reasons.

1. a pre-condition assumes that there is always a stash on the stack when git stash branch is called,
which is not necessarily true
2. the cleanup code assumes the specified stash is a stash reference, rather than an arbitrary commit.
The test_expect_failure tests in this patch demonstrate these issues.
