[PATCH v2] docs: link generating patch sections

["John Cai via GitGitGadget" <gitgitgadget@gmail.com>]

From: John Cai <johncai86@gmail.com>

Currently, in the git-log documentation, the reference to generating
patches does not match the section title. This can make the section
"Generating patch text with -p" hard to find, since typically readers of
the documentation will copy and paste to search the page.

Let's make this more convenient for readers by linking it directly to
the section.

Since git-log pulls in diff-generate-patch.txt, we can provide a direct
link to the section. Otherwise, change the verbiage to match exactly
what the section title is, to at least make searching for it an easier
task.

    Since v1:
    
     * added explicit anchor for generating patch text section
     * adjusted verbiage to include quotations
