Documentation: clarify that `-h` alone stands for `help`
We seem to be getting new users who get confused every 20 months or so with this "-h consistently wants to give help, but the commands to which `-h` may feel like a good short-form option want it to mean something else." compromise. Let's make sure that the readers know that `git cmd -h` (with no other arguments) is a way to get usage text, even for commands like ls-remote and grep. Also extend the description that is already in gitcli.txt, as it is clear that users still get confused with the current text. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
