git-add: Add support for --, documentation, and test.
This adds support to git-add to allow the common -- to separate command-line options and file names. It adds documentation and a new git-add test case as well. [jc: this should apply to 1.2.X maintenance series, so I reworked git-ls-files --error-unmatch test. ] Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
