Jeff King d9ec3b0dc0 doc/ls-remote: clarify pattern format ...

We document that you can specify "refs" to ls-remote, but we don't
explain any further than that they are "matched" as patterns. Since this
can be interpreted in a lot of ways, let's clarify that they are
tail-matched globs.

Likewise, let's use the word "patterns" to refer to them consistently,
rather than "refs" (both here and in the quick "-h" help), and mention
more explicitly that only one pattern needs to be matched (though there
is also an example already that shows this in action).
