[PATCH] cat-file: be consistent in usage string and documentation.

From: Junio C Hamano <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:42:02
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

Now that we have something called tag object, and a notion of
"tags" stored in .git/refs/tags/ directory, the word "tagname"
has become misleading in the usage string.  The documentation
already calls that <type>.
