`git stash drop --help` removes stash@{0}

Thanks.

Unfortunately there is no subcommand specific help text, so a quick fix
would be along the lines of the attached patch.

The right fix would be to instead add support for subcommand specific help
text.  Such a change would tweak assert_stash_like and assert_stash_ref
not to die when --help is given even if there is no stash (or an explicit
command line argument did not name a stash), and then make all subcommand
implementations in the script (e.g. find places where these two functions
are called) notice that the user asked for --help and give subcommand
specific help text from there.
