v2 reroll of a previously-discussed patch. Thanks to everyone for their
comments. Based on feedback:

1. Command is now a verb: git branch --show-current.

2. Changed to gitster's suggested implementation: nothing is printed
 if HEAD does not point to a symbolic ref. A fatal
 error if HEAD is a symbolic ref but does not start with refs/heads/.

3. Added a test to show this works with worktrees

A process question to the list. The patch adds a new localizable string
that gets output in case of repository corruption. I happen to speak a
couple of the languages that have po files. Is it accepted practice to
also include po edits in my patch in such a case, or should that be
left to the regular l10n workflow?
