Technically, "-s, --no-patch" is implemented in diff.c ("git diff
--no-patch" is essentially useless, but valid). From the user point of
view, this allows the documentation to show up in "git show --help",
which is one of the most useful use of the option.
While we're there, add a sentence explaining why the option can be
useful.
