Thanks Matthieu, Peff and Junio for the discussion on v3 and v4.

Changes since v4: Dropped patch 1 from the series, as it's already in master

Instead of changing the external interface to git stash create, only refactor the internal create_stash() function to take -m and -u arguments. This also simplifies the internal option parsing.

Make git stash -p an alias for git stash push -p, so git stash -p <pathspec> is allowed.
