branch: split validate_new_branchname() into two
Checking if a proposed name is appropriate for a branch is strictly a subset of checking if we want to allow creating or updating a branch with such a name. The mysterious sounding 'attr_only' parameter to validate_new_branchname() is used to switch the function between these two roles. Instead, split the function into two, and adjust the callers. A new helper validate_branchname() only checks the name and reports if the branch already exists. This loses one NEEDSWORK from the branch API. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
