Update docs on behaviour of 'core.sharedRepository' and 'git init --s…

…hared'

This documentation update is needed to reflect the recent changes where
"core.sharedRepository = 0mode" was changed to set, not loosen, the
repository permissions.

 By default, the configuration flag receive.denyNonFastForwards is enabled
 in shared repositories, so that you cannot force a non fast-forwarding push
