fetch and pull: learn --progress

Note that in the documentation for git-pull, documentation for the
--progress option is displayed under the "Options related to fetching"
subtitle via fetch-options.txt.

Also, update the documentation of the -q/--quiet option for git-pull to
mention its effect on progress reporting during fetching.
