[PATCH 2/9] for-each-ref: clarify interaction of --omit-empty & --count

["Victoria Dye via GitGitGadget" <gitgitgadget@gmail.com>]

From: Victoria Dye <vdye@github.com>

Update the 'for-each-ref' builtin documentation to clarify that refs
"omitted" by --omit-empty are still counted toward the limit specified by
--count. The use of the term "omit" would otherwise be somewhat ambiguous
and could incorrectly be construed as excluding empty refs entirely (i.e.
not counting them towards the total ref count).
