doc: touch: clarify --time description in man page

* src/touch.c (usage): Reorganise the description to be similar to
the format used for the ls --time description, which formats better
when converted to a man page.  Also separate the description
to allow for more granular translations.
Fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/67656
