Reorganize `git-log' man page to clarify common diff options.
This will reduce considerably the common confusion where people miss the `--follow' option, and wonder why `-M'/`-C' is not working. * Move the diff options include to after the log-specific flags, and add a "Common diff options" subtitle before them. (These options apply only when patches are shown, which is not a common use case among newbies, so having them first is confusing.) * Move the `--follow' description to the top of the listed options. The options before that seem less important: `--full-diff' applies only when patches are shown, `--source' and `--decorate' are less useful with many common commit specifications. * Clarify that `--follow' works only for a single path argument.
