Consider local project to be default for 'repo start'

The requirement to explicitly specify the local project when starting
a new repo branch is somewhat counter intuitive.

This patch uses the current directory's git tree as the default
project.

Tested by running

  'repo start <name>'

observed that the result is the same as if running

  'repo start <name> .'
