doc: git-checkout: fix placeholder markup
The placeholder markup is underscore (_), not backtick (`) as well.
The inline-verbatim markup (backticks) handle interior formatting. This
means in this case that it applies HTML `<code>` to the underscores and
`<em>` to the placeholder.
That is the effect, anyway; we can see from the rest of 042d6f34 (doc:
git-checkout: clarify `-b` and `-B`, 2025-09-10) that this was probably
an unintended mix-up.
