Documentation: use {asterisk} in rev-list-options.txt when needed
Text between two '*' is emphasized in AsciiDoc and makes explanations in
rev-list-options.txt on glob-related options very confusing, as the
rendered text would be missing two asterisks and the text between them
would be emphasized instead.
Use '{asterisk}' where needed to make them show up as asterisks in the
rendered text.
