Add a variable, noncreate_actions, to cmd_branch() that will tell us
whether or not cmd_branch() will default to creating a branch (instead
of performing another action). Besides making the function more
explicit, this allows us to validate options that can only be used when
creating a branch. Such an option does not exist yet, but one will be
introduced in a subsequent commit.
Incidentally, fix an incorrect usage string that combined the 'list'
usage of git branch (-l) with the 'create' usage; this string has been
incorrect since its inception, a8dfd5eac4 (Make builtin-branch.c use
parse_options., 2007-10-07).
