The previous commit fixed a failure in 'git subtree merge --squash' when
the previous squash-merge merged an annotated tag of the subtree
repository which is missing locally.

The same failure happens in 'git subtree split', either directly or when
called by 'git subtree push', under the same circumstances: 'cmd_split'
invokes 'find_existing_splits', which loops through previous commits and
invokes 'git rev-parse' (via 'process_subtree_split_trailer') on the
value of any 'git subtree-split' trailer it finds. This fails if this
value is the hash of an annotated tag which is missing locally.

Add a new optional argument 'repository' to 'cmd_split' and
'find_existing_splits', and invoke 'cmd_split' with that argument from
'cmd_push'. This allows 'process_subtree_split_trailer' to try to fetch
the missing tag from the 'repository' if it's not available locally,
mirroring the new behaviour of 'git subtree pull' and 'git subtree
merge'.

This "test" syntax is considered unportable, I'm too lazy to dig up the
reference, but we've removed it in the past. Maybe it's OK with
git-subtree.sh", but anyway, it's esay enough to change...

...but looking at "master" I see one instance of it in git-subtree.sh
already, so maybe nobody cares...
I did not know it was not portable, in fact I used this form because while
reading the rest of the script I found that was the style used already. 

So I guess I would leave this as a further cleanup for someone wishing to make
'git subtree' more POSIX...
