git-parse-remote: fix highly misleading man page
The man page still talked about the .git/remotes/ directory (which is no
longer in use, as of 75c384efb52 (Do not create $GIT_DIR/remotes/
directory anymore., 2006-12-19)).
Let's just revamp it almost completely to reflect the *purpose* of that
scriptlet, as opposed to its implementation details.
