user-manual: mention "..." in "Generating diffs", etc.

We should mention the use of the "..." syntax for git-diff here.  The

git-format-patch then no longer fits so well, so remove it.  Add a
reference to the git-format-patch[1] manpage.

not reachable from test, then the combined result of these patches
will not be the same as the diff produced by the git-diff example.
