Oh please, yes, please do this.  We should have done this long, long
ago.  Its easy enough to train your fingers or fix your scripts to say
`git stash save list` rather than `git stash lsit` once stash errors
out and gives you a usage message once.

Migration plan:

In 1.7.5, give a loud warning for both syntaxes.

In 1.8.0, switch them as described.

Just fix it.  I can't imagine anyone cares enough that `git stash
blah` stops working without first saying save.
