Reorganize `git-log' man page to clarify common diff options.
This will reduce considerably the common confusion where people miss the
`--follow' option, and wonder why `-M'/`-C' is not working.
* Move the diff options include to after the log-specific flags, and add
a "Common diff options" subtitle before them. (These options apply
only when patches are shown, which is not a common use case among
newbies, so having them first is confusing.)
* Move the `--follow' description to the top of the listed options. The
options before that seem less important: `--full-diff' applies only
when patches are shown, `--source' and `--decorate' are less useful
with many common commit specifications.
* Clarify that `--follow' works only for a single path argument.
