Change commands in the "diff" family and "rev-list" to separate the
usage information and option listing with an empty line.
In the case of "git diff -h" we did this already (but let's use a
consistent "\n" pattern there), for the rest these are now consistent
with how the parse_options() API would emit usage.
As we'll see in a subsequent commit this also helps to make the "git
<cmd> -h" output more easily machine-readable, as we can assume that
the usage information is separated from the options by an empty line.
Note that "COMMON_DIFF_OPTIONS_HELP" starts with a "\n", so the
seeming omission of a "\n" here is correct, the second one is provided
by the macro.
