[PATCH] Documentation/git-archive: spell --worktree-attributes correctly

The --worktree-attributes option was correctly documented in ba053ea (archive: do not read .gitattributes in working directory, 2009-04-18). However, later in 9b4c8b0 (archive documentation: attributes are taken from the tree by default, 2010-02-10) the misspelling "--work-tree-attributes" was used to refer to it. Fix this.
