[PATCH] Escape minus signs in manpage to fix lintian warning

[Martin Steigerwald]

Hi Jens!

I have patch to fix a recently introduced lintian warning. It is my first
try with "git format-patch origin" and KMail without line wrappings.

Please tell me, whether its okay.

I will include the patch in my debian package until I package a version
where you merged it.

 Overwrite the default list of percentiles for completion
 latencies. Each number is a floating number in the range (0,100], and
 the maximum length of the list is 20. Use ':' to separate the
-numbers. For example, --percentile_list=99.5:99.9 will cause fio to
+numbers. For example, \-\-percentile_list=99.5:99.9 will cause fio to

 the observed latencies fell, respectively.
