The builtin/notes.c::copy() function is prepared to handle either
one or two arguments given from the command line;
in case of one argument is given, to-obj defaults to HEAD.
When bbb1b8a3 ("notes: check number of parameters to "git notes copy"",
2010-06-28) tried to make sure "git notes copy" (with *no* other
argument) does not dereference NULL by making sure we did not get
too few parameters, it incorrectly insisted that we need two arguments,
instead of either one or two.
This disabled the defaulting to-obj to HEAD.
Correct it.
