bisect: document command line arguments for "bisect start"
The syntax commonly used for alternatives is --opt-(a|b), not --opt-{a,b}. List bad/new and good/old consistently in this order, to be consistent with the description for "git bisect terms". Clarify <term> to either <term-old> or <term-new> to make them consistent with the description of "git bisect (good|bad)" subcommands.
