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.
