[PATCH 3/7] git-log.txt: order OPTIONS properly; move <since>..<until>

From

<1366608631-21734-1-git-send-email-artagnon@gmail.com>

The OPTIONS section lists <since>..<until> as the first item, but this is inconsistent with the ordering in SYNOPSIS. Move it down until it appears just before [[--] <path>...].
