[PATCH v2 1/9] scalar: fix command documentation section header

From: Victoria Dye <vdye@github.com>

Rename the last section header in 'contrib/scalar/scalar.txt' from "Scalar" to "GIT". The linting rules of the 'documentation' CI build enforce the existence of a "GIT" section in command documentation. Although 'scalar.txt' is not yet checked, it will be in a future patch.

Here, changing the header name is more appropriate than making a Scalar-specific exception to the linting rule. The existing "Scalar" section contains only a link back to the main Git documentation, essentially the same as the "GIT" section in builtin documentation. Changing the section name further clarifies the Scalar-Git association and maintains consistency with the rest of Git.
