Documentation: usage for diff combined commits

Browse Source 
Document the usage for producing combined commits with "git diff".
This includes updating the synopsis section.

While here, add the three-dot notation to the synopsis.

Make "git diff -h" print the same usage summary as the manual
page synopsis, minus the "A..B" form, which is now discouraged.
