doc: git-log: convert line range format to new doc format

- Use _<placeholder>_ instead of <placeholder> in the description
- Use `backticks` for keywords and more complex option
descriptions. The new rendering engine will apply synopsis rules to
these spans.

··· 1 - '<start>' and '<end>' can take one of these forms: 2 3 - - number 4 + 5 - If '<start>' or '<end>' is a number, it specifies an 6 absolute line number (lines count from 1). 7 + 8 9 - - `/regex/` 10 + 11 This form will use the first line matching the given 12 - POSIX regex. If '<start>' is a regex, it will search from the end of 13 the previous `-L` range, if any, otherwise from the start of file. 14 - If '<start>' is `^/regex/`, it will search from the start of file. 15 - If '<end>' is a regex, it will search 16 - starting at the line given by '<start>'. 17 + 18 19 - - +offset or -offset 20 + 21 - This is only valid for '<end>' and will specify a number 22 - of lines before or after the line given by '<start>'. 23 24 + 25 - If `:<funcname>` is given in place of '<start>' and '<end>', it is a 26 regular expression that denotes the range from the first funcname line 27 - that matches '<funcname>', up to the next funcname line. `:<funcname>` 28 searches from the end of the previous `-L` range, if any, otherwise 29 from the start of file. `^:<funcname>` searches from the start of 30 file. The function names are determined in the same way as `git diff`
