Add an entry in the 'merge-tree' builtin documentation for
-X/--strategy-option (added in 6a4c9e7b32 (merge-tree: add -X strategy
option, 2023-09-24)). The same option is documented for 'merge', 'rebase',
'revert', etc. in their respective Documentation/ files, so let's do the
same for 'merge-tree'.

Makes sense.

I briefly wondered if it is a good occasion to consolidate the four
copies of the document pieces into one before you add the fifth one,
but the one for "git rebase -X" is significantly different from
others, so perhaps we need to live with these duplications for now.
The ones in git-cherry-pick.txt, git-revert.txt, merge-options.txt
and this new one can be consolidated into a single include::, but
then it becomes dubious if we want a new file only to hold just five
lines, so ...

Will queue.  Thanks.
