  Log Message:
  -----------
  [Option] Allow subcommand names as positional arguments

ArgList::getSubCommand() treats every positional argument that matches
a subcommand name as a subcommand, and reports multiple subcommands if
more than one does. That rejects valid command lines where a later
positional argument happens to be spelled like a subcommand, e.g.

  git branch clone  # create a new branch named "clone"

Add an AllowSubCommandNamesAsPositionals parameter to getSubCommand().
When set, the first positional argument that matches a subcommand name
is the subcommand, and later ones are passed to HandleOtherPositionals
instead of being reported as multiple subcommands.
