mv: let 'git mv file no-such-dir/' error out

Git used to trim the trailing slash, and make the command equivalent
to 'git mv file no-such-dir', which created the file no-such-dir
(while the trailing slash explicitly stated that it could only be a
directory).

This patch skips the trailing slash removal for the destination
path.  The path with its trailing slash is passed to rename(2),
which errors out with the appropriate message:

  $ git mv file no-such-dir/
  fatal: renaming 'file' failed: Not a directory
