git-daemon doc: update mark-up of synopsis option descriptions

To unify mark-up used in our documentation to a newer convention,
started by 2229389 (doc: apply synopsis simplification on git-clone
and git-init, 2024-09-24), update the documentation of 'git daemon'
to

 * use [synopsis], not [verse] in the SYNOPSIS section
 * enclose `--option=<value>` in backquotes

Also, split '--[no-]option' into '--option' and '--no-option'
to make it easier to grep for them.

Also fix mark-ups for `verbatim` and _<placeholder>_ in the affected
files.

---strict-paths::

 	Match paths exactly (i.e. don't allow "/foo/repo" when the real path is

---interpolated-path=<pathtemplate>::
+`--interpolated-path=<pathtemplate>`::
 	To support virtual hosting, an interpolated path template can be
 	used to dynamically construct alternate paths.  The template
-	supports %H for the target hostname as supplied by the client but
-	converted to all lowercase, %CH for the canonical hostname,
-	%IP for the server's IP address, %P for the port number,

+	converted to all lowercase, `%CH` for the canonical hostname,
+	`%IP` for the server's IP address, `%P` for the port number,

 	After interpolation, the path is validated against the directory
 	list.
 
---export-all::
+`--export-all`::
 	Allow pulling from all directories that look like Git repositories

---port=<n>::

 	Listen on an alternative port.  Incompatible with `--inetd` option.
 
---init-timeout=<n>::
+`--init-timeout=<n>`::
 	Timeout (in seconds) between the moment the connection is established
 	and the client request is received (typically a rather low value, since
 	that should be basically immediate).
 
---timeout=<n>::
+`--timeout=<n>`::
 	Timeout (in seconds) for specific client sub-requests. This includes
 	the time it takes for the server to process the sub-request and the
 	time spent waiting for the next client's request.
 
---max-connections=<n>::
+`--max-connections=<n>`::
 	Maximum number of concurrent clients, defaults to 32.  Set it to
 	zero for no limit.
