[PATCH v2] doc: restore: remove note on --patch w/ pathspecs

["Adam Johnson via GitGitGadget" <gitgitgadget@gmail.com>]

From: Adam Johnson <me@adamj.eu>

This note was added with the restore command docs in 46e91b663b
(checkout: split part of it to new command 'restore', 2019-04-25), but it is
now inaccurate. The underlying builtin `add -i` implementation, made default
in 0527ccb1b5 (add -i: default to the built-in implementation, 2021-11-30),
supports pathspecs, so `git restore -p <pathspec>...` has worked for all
users since then. I bisected to verify this was the commit that added
support.

    This note was added with the command in 46e91b663b, but it is now
    inaccurate. The underlying builtin add -i implementation, made default
    in 0527ccb1b5, does support pathspecs, so git restore -p <pathspec>...
    has worked for all users since then. I bisected to verify this.
