Changes since v1: More fallout, still reduce size of final patch:
- Disable negation of "git subtree" options that don't support it.
- Adjust t7900 in contrib/subtree/t to the changed output.
- Adjust git-rev-parse.txt to the changed output.
- Disable negation of --help in t1502.
- Add negation tests to t1502.
- Deduplicate expected output in t1502.

  t1502, docs: disallow --no-help
  t1502: move optionspec help output to a file
  t1502: test option negation
