To unify mark-up used in our documentation to a newer convention,
started by 22293895 (doc: apply synopsis simplification on git-clone
and git-init, 2024-09-24), update the documentation pages for 'git
verify-commit', 'git verify-tag', and 'git verify-pack' to
* use [synopsis], not [verse] in the SYNOPSIS section
* enclose `--option=<value>` in backquotes
* do not describe non-option arguments in the OPTIONS section
