git-mergetool has an entry for "--" in its command-line parsing code
to designate the end of option processing. It was not calling shift,
though, which caused git-mergetool to incorrectly use "--" as the
merge filename.
This patch fixes this bug and updates the usage and documentation
to include [--] in the options spec.
