branch: error copying or renaming a detached HEAD
In c847f53712 (Detached HEAD (experimental), 2007-01-01) an error
condition was introduced in rename_branch() to prevent renaming, later
also copying, a detached HEAD.
The condition used was checking for NULL in oldname, the source branch
to rename/copy. That condition cannot be satisfied because if no source
branch is specified, HEAD is going to be used in the call.
The error issued instead is:
fatal: Invalid branch name: 'HEAD'
Let's remove the condition in copy_or_rename_branch() (the current
function name) and check for HEAD before calling it, dying with the
original intended error if we're in a detached HEAD.
