[PATCH 7/7] fmt-merge-msg: hide summary option

The --summary command line option has been deprecated in favor of --log. Hide the option from the help message to further discourage the use of this option.

When is this option going to be removed? It's approaching 2 years since the deprecation occured in 6cd9cfe (fmt-merge-msg: add '--(no-)log' options and 'merge.log' config variable, 2008-04-06)
