branch_get() can return NULL (so far on detached HEAD only) but some
code paths in builtin/branch.c cannot deal with that and cause
segfaults.
While at there, make sure to bail out when the user gives 2 or more
branches with --set-upstream-to or --unset-upstream, where only the
first branch is processed and the rest silently dropped.

Fixed.

The explanation mentions about the failed operation, which makes a
helper less useful. We could still do the helper, but it may lead to
i18n legos. So no helper in this version.

It sounds complicated. I think we can revisit it when a user actually
complains about it.
