bisect: improve error message when branch checkout fails
In "git-bisect.sh" the "git checkout" command is only used to
change the current branch, but it is used like this:
git checkout "$branch"
which will output the following misleading error message when
it fails:
error: pathspec 'foo' did not match any file(s) known to git.
This patch change the way we use "git checkout" like this:
git checkout "$branch" --
so that we will get the following error message:
fatal: invalid reference: foo
which is better.
