format-patch: Add "--no-stat" as a synonym for "-p"
"-p" means "generate patch" in 'git log' and 'git diff', so it's quite surprising that it means "suppress diffstat" in 'git format-patch'. Keep the "-p" option for backward compatibility, but add "--no-stat" as a more intuitive synonym. For backward compatibility with scripts, we must allow combinations of --stat and --no-stat.
