Documentation/stash: remove mention of git reset --hard
Don't mention git reset --hard in the documentation for git stash save. It's an implementation detail that doesn't matter to the end user and thus shouldn't be exposed to them. In addition it's not quite true for git stash -p, and will not be true when a filename argument to limit the stash to a few files is introduced.
