When no subcommand is specified to "reflog", we assume "show" [1]:
    $ git reflog -h
    usage: git reflog [show] [<log-options>] [<ref>]
    ...
We are not completing correctly this implicit uses of "show":
With ...
    $ git checkout -b default
... we are not completing "default":
    $ git reflog def<TAB><TAB>
And we are incorrectly returning the "subcommands" when:
    $ git reflog default <TAB><TAB>
    delete expire show

Let's use __gitcomp_subcommand to correctly handle implicit subcommands.
