Documentation: update to git-merge-base --octopus

Unlike plain merge-base, merge-base --octopus only requires at least one
commit argument; update the synopsis to reflect that.

Add a sentence to the discussion that when --octopus is used, we do expect
'2' (the common ansestor across all) as the result.
