rev-parse: clarify documentation of $name@{upstream} syntax

"git rev-parse" interprets string in string@{upstream} as a name of
a branch not a ref. For example, refs/heads/master@{upstream} looks
for an upstream branch that is merged by git-pull to ref
refs/heads/refs/heads/master not to refs/heads/master.
However the documentation could mislead a user to believe that the
string is interpreted as ref.

Split the backward-compatibility notes into two sections, the ones
that affect this release, and the other to describe changes meant
for Git 2.0. The latter gives a context to understand why the
changes for this release is necessary.

We describe what gets pushed by default when the command line does
not give any <refspec> under the bullet point of <refspec>.
It is a bit unfriendly to expect users to read on <refspec> when
they are not giving any in the first place. "What gets pushed" is
determined by taking many factors (<refspec> argument being only one
of them) into account, and is a property of the entire command, not
an individual argument. Also we do not describe "Where the push
goes" when the command line does not say.
Give the description on "what gets pushed to where" upfront before
explaining individual arguments and options.
Also update the description of <refspec> to say what it is, what it
is used for, before explaining what shape it takes.

The documentation of '-A' and '-u' is very confusing for someone who
doesn't already know what they do. Describe them with fewer words and
clearer parallelism to each other and to the behavior of plain 'add'.
Also mention the default <pathspec> for '-A' as well as '-u', because
it applies to both.

An earlier workaround designed to help people who list logical
directories that will not match what getcwd(3) returns in the
GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES had an adverse effect when it is slow to
stat and readlink a directory component of an element listed on it.

In commit 9db31bdf (submodule: Add --force option for git submodule
update, 2011-04-01) we added the option to the implementation's usage
synopsis but forgot to add it to the synopsis in the command
documentation. Add the option to the synopsis in the same location it
is reported in usage and re-wrap the options to avoid long lines.

There is a rare edge case of git-filter-branch: a filter that unsets
identity variables from the environment. Link to git-commit-tree
clarifies how Git would fall back in this situation.

I tried to always use backticks for:
* Paths and filenames (e.g. `.git/config`)
* Compound refs (e.g. `origin/HEAD`)
* Git commands (e.g. `git log`)
* Command arguments (e.g. `--pretty`)
* URLs (e.g. `git://`), as a subset of command arguments
* Special characters (e.g. `+` in diffs).
* Config options (e.g. `branch.<name>.remote`)
Branch and tag names are sometimes set off with double quotes,
sometimes set off with backticks, and sometimes left bare. I tried to
judge when the intention was introducing new terms or conventions
(double quotes), to reference a recently used command argument
(backticks), or to reference the abstract branch/commit (left bare).
Obviously these are not particularly crisp definitions, so my
decisions are fairly arbitrary ;). When a reference had already been
introduced, I changed further double-quoted instances to backticked
instances.
When new backticks increased the length of a line beyond others in
that block, I re-wrapped blocks to 72 columns.

It said "by default it is off" while it also said "the default is
always", which confused everybody who read it only once. It wanted
to say (1) if you do not say --color, it is not enabled, and (2) if
you say --color but do not say when to enable it, it will always be
enabled".
Rephrase to clarify by using "default" only once.
