[PATCH] doc/cat-file: allow --use-mailmap for --batch options

[Siddharth Asthana <siddharthasthana31@gmail.com>]

The command git cat-file can now use the mailmap mechanism to replace
idents with their canonical versions for commit and tag objects. There
are several options like `--batch`, `--batch-check` and
`--batch-command` that can be combined with `--use-mailmap`. But, the
documentation for `--batch`, `--batch-check` and `--batch-command`
doesn't say so. This patch fixes that documentation.

This patch was previously sent as the first patch of a 3 patch series for 
adding the mailmap support in git cat-file options:
https://lore.kernel.org/git/20220916205946.178925-2-siddharthasthana31@gmail.com/

Changes in v2:
- Fixed the names in trailers in the commit message
- Updated the documentation to clearly state that the `--batch-check`,
  `--batch-command` and `--batch` options can only be used with
  `--textconv`, `--filters` or `--use-mailmap`.
- Fixed formatting

Changes in v3:
- Fixed formatting
