Ever since 'git sparse-checkout' was introduced [1] it is included in
'git --help' in the section "work on the current change" along with
the commands 'add', 'mv', 'restore', and 'rm'.  It clearly doesn't
belong to that group, moreover it can't be considered such a common
command to belong to 'git --help' in the first place, so remove it
from there.

[1] 94c0956b60 (sparse-checkout: create builtin with 'list'
                subcommand, 2019-11-21)
-git-sparse-checkout                     mainporcelain           worktree
+git-sparse-checkout                     mainporcelain
Thanks! I didn't realize what a pain it would be to include the
'worktree' grouping here.
