Nika Layzell 0a8e3036a3 reset: parse rev as tree-ish in patch mode ...

Since 2f328c3d ("reset $sha1 $pathspec: require $sha1 only to be
treeish", 2013-01-14), we allowed "git reset $object -- $path" to reset
individual paths that match the pathspec to take the blob from a tree
object, not necessarily a commit, while the form to reset the tip of the
current branch to some other commit still must be given a commit.

Like resetting with paths, "git reset --patch" does not update HEAD, and
need not require a commit. The path-filtered form, "git reset --patch
$object -- $pathspec", has accepted a tree-ish since 2f328c3d.

"git reset --patch" is documented as accepting a <tree-ish> since
bf44142f ("reset: update documentation to require only tree-ish with
paths", 2013-01-16). Documentation changes are not required.

Loosen the restriction that requires a commit for the unfiltered "git
reset --patch $object".
