[PATCH] contrib/completion: fix remote completion for "git push/remote"

If __git_cmd_idx is empty then zsh will silelntly fail to
complete remotes when doing "git push <tab>".

Ensure that __git_cmd_idx is non-empty before using it in
__git_complete_remote_or_refspec.

This was tested on zsh 5.7.1 (x86_64-apple-darwin19.0).
Other versions of zsh, eg. zsh 5.0.2 (x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu),
do not exhibit this behavior.

Further testing of the completion behavior spotted this regression.

This should be applied on top of,
"contrib/completion: avoid empty arithemetic expressions".
and could arguably be squashed into that commit.

I have my zshrc setup to point directly to a git.git worktree and a recent
update seems to have caused these regressions.

Thanks! I'm going to wait a bit for the completion experts to chime in
before I prepare a v2.

For v2, I'm thinking it might make sense to go ahead and squash both
of the completion changes into a single patch.

(sorry for the noisy resend -- I wasn't in text mode so vger dropped
the original reply)
