When completions are offered for `git stash branch<TAB>`, the user is supposed to receive refs. This works in the case where the main git command is called without arguments but if options are provided, such as `git -C dir stash branch<TAB>`, then the `$cword -eq 3` provides incorrect results. Count the words relative to the first instance of "stash" so that we ignore arguments to the main git command. Unfortunately, this still does not work 100% correctly. For example, in the case of something like `git -C stash stash branch<TAB>`, this will incorrectly identify the first "stash" as the command. This seems to be an edge-case that we can ignore, though, as other functions, such as _git_worktree(), suffer from the same problem.
