[PATCH v2 3/7] doc: typeset long command-line options as literal

[Matthieu Moy <Matthieu.Moy@imag.fr>]

Similarly to the previous commit, use backquotes instead of
forward-quotes, for long options.

This was obtained with:

  perl -pi -e "s/'(--[a-z][a-z=<>-]*)'/\`\$1\`/g" *.txt

and manual tweak to remove false positive in ascii-art (o'--o'--o' to
describe rewritten history).

Signed-off-by: Matthieu Moy <Matthieu.Moy@imag.fr>
