rerere forget: deprecate invocation without pathspec
rerere forget is a destructive command. When invoked without a path, it operates on the current directory, potentially deleting many recorded conflict resolutions. To make the command safer, a path must be specified as of git 1.8.0. Until then, give users time to write 'git rerere forget .' if they really mean the entire current directory.
