[PATCH] reset: update help text

From: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:50:55
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

State --mixed is the default so users don't have to open up man page.

Also make it clear how --hard and --merge are different.

Move -q to bottom because it's not that important to pay attention to as
the first item.
