create_branch: drop unused "head" parameterjk/create-branch-remove-unused-param
This function used to have the caller pass in the current value of HEAD, in order to make sure we didn't clobber HEAD. In 55c4a6730, that logic moved to validate_new_branchname(), which just resolves HEAD itself. The parameter to create_branch is now unused. Since we have to update and re-wrap the docstring describing the parameters anyway, let's take this opportunity to break it out into a list, which makes it easier to find the parameters.
