doc: convert git-reset to new documentation format
- Switch the synopsis to a synopsis block which will automatically format placeholders in italics and keywords in monospace - Use _<placeholder>_ instead of <placeholder> in the description - Use `backticks` for keywords and more complex option descriptions. The new rendering engine will apply synopsis rules to these spans. Signed-off-by: Jean-Noël Avila <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <[email protected]>
