I was mostly worried that somebody is relying on the weird current
behavior with the blank line. I'm inclined to call it a bugfix, too.

I started down that road and then realized that "--first-parent" is not
enough. It is only interesting combined with "-m". But it turns out that
using the two together does exactly what we want, and is overridden
as you would hope with just "--cc".

See the patch below, which I think could replace the top three from
jk/stash-list-p (or really, could replace the whole series, and the
bottom three could go into their own topic).

Subject: stash: default listing to working-tree diff

When you list stashes, you can provide arbitrary git-log
options to change the display. However, adding just "-p"
does nothing, because each stash is actually a merge commit.

This implementation detail is easy to forget, leading to
confused users who think "-p" is not working. We can make
this easier by defaulting to "--first-parent -m", which will
show the diff against the working tree. This omits the
index portion of the stash entirely, but it's simple and it
matches what "git stash show" provides.

People who are more clueful about stash's true form can use
"--cc" to override the "-m", and the "--first-parent" will
then do nothing. For diffs, it only affects non-combined
diffs, so "--cc" overrides it. And for the traversal, we are
walking the linear reflog anyway, so we do not even care
about the parents.
