Add synopsis with the '--comment-lines' option.

Hi,
there were no mention of '--comment-lines' in the synopsis.

('--comment-lines' and '--strip-comments' options
are mutually exclusive).

I solved this by adding an extra (second) synopsis line
so it looks just like the 'usage_msg' in 'builtin/stripspace.c'.

But perhaps it would be wiser to have something like
"git stripspace [[-s | --strip-comments] | [-c | --comment-lines]] < input"
instead (and perhaps ordered alphabetically).
This approach can be seen e.g. in the git-add man page.

For the 'master'.


Also, have a few questions about stripspace generally:
a) Should 'git stripspace --comment-lines' really leave the trailing
whitespace alone (example: ' hello  '->'# hello  ')?
b) In the documentation there is:
"-s, --strip-comments
           Skip and remove all lines starting with comment character (default #)."

part. This "default" word somehow suggests some new command option that would
allow to change the comment character. Would you accept a patch implementing
this or such functionality is not desired.

Thank you.
