[PATCH v2] Doc: Bundle file usage

[Philip Oakley <philipoakley@iee.email>]

From: Philip Oakley <philipoakley@iee.org>

Git URLs can accept bundle files for fetch, pull and clone, include
in that section. Include git clone in the bundle usage description.
Correct the quoting of <git-rev-list-args>.
Detail the <git-rev-list-args> options for cloning a complete repo.

This takes up the advice from peff in 
https://public-inbox.org/git/20191011161112.GA19741@sigill.intra.peff.net/
from the original v1 in 2012(!)
https://public-inbox.org/git/1348010734-664-2-git-send-email-philipoakley@iee.org/

Hopefully this covers Junio's concerns from that time.
