doc/ls-files: put nested list for "-t" option into block

The description for the "-t" option contains a sub-list of all of the
possible file status outputs. But because of the newline separating that
list from the description paragraph, asciidoc treats the sub-list
entries as a continuation of the overall options list, rather than as
children of the "-t" description.

We could fix it by adding a "+" before the sub-list to connect it to the
rest of the "-t" text. But using a pair of "--" to delimit the block is
perhaps more readable, and may have better compatibility with
asciidoctor, as in 39a869b2f2 (Documentation/rev-list-options: wrap
--date=<format> block with "--", 2019-03-30).

The extra blank line comes from 5bc0e247c4 (Document ls-files -t as
semi-obsolete., 2010-07-28), but the problem actually seems older than
that. Before then, we did:

-t:: some text...
H:: cached
M:: unmerged
etc...

but asciidoc also treats that as one big list. So this problem seems to
have been around forever.
