last-modified: support sparse checkouts
In a sparse checkout, a user might want to run `last-modified` on a directory outside the worktree. And even in non-sparse checkouts, a user might need to run that command on a directory that does not exist in the worktree. These use cases should be supported via the `--` separator between revision and file arguments, which is even advertised in the documentation. This patch fixes a tiny bug that prevents that from working.
