Options list in the synopsis and description section of git-repack(1)
are out of sync. The latest addition was in commit 1d89d88d37
(builtin/repack.c: support writing a MIDX while repacking, 2021-09-28),
which only adds -m/--write-midx option.

Add missing options to the synopsis. Additionaly, sort according to the
order they appear in the description.

Could we possibly just shorten the synopsis to something like this?

"git repack [<options>]"

As Junio mentioned here [1], this could be a more "modern" style?
Since the OPTIONS chunk below gives a more detailed usage, I
think we can get rid of the redundancy in the SYNOPSIS. And it also
helps with the aesthetic and clarity.
