In 5f43cf5b2e4 (merge-tree: accept 3 trees as arguments, 2024-01-28), I
taught `git merge-tree` to perform three-way merges on trees. This
commit even changed the manual page to state that the `--merge-base`
option takes a tree-ish rather than requiring a commit.

But I forgot to adjust the in-program help text. This patch fixes that.

Thanks for being careful---better late than never ;-)

Will queue and fast-track, as I do not see much chance of regression
coming from here.
