[PATCH] read-tree: abort if no trees are given

["Jan Krüger" <jk@jk.gs>]

Currently, read-tree silently accepts an invocation without any
tree-ishs given and simply clobbers the index in that case. This
contradicts the usage synopsis and it's also probably not what anyone
would want to happen. So, instead, abort with a fatal error.

Someone in #git got confused by this.
