Robert P. J. Day de613050ef Use proper syntax for replaceables in command docs
The standard for command documentation synopses appears to be:

  [...] means optional
  <...> means replaceable
  [<...>] means both optional and replaceable

So fix a number of doc pages that use incorrect variations of the
above.

'git check-mailmap' [<options>] <contact>...
DESCRIPTION
-----------
For each ``Name $$<user@host>$$'' or ``$$<user@host>$$'' from the command-line
or standard input (when using `--stdin`), look up the person's canonical name
and email address (see "Mapping Authors" below). If found, print them;
otherwise print the input as-is.

contacts provided on the command-line.

name is provided or known to the 'mailmap', ``Name $$<user@host>$$'' is
printed; otherwise only ``$$<user@host>$$'' is printed.
