[PATCH 09/11] built-in add -i: support `?` (prompt help)

[Johannes Schindelin via GitGitGadget]

From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schinde...@gmx.de>

With this change, we print out the same colored help text that the
Perl-based `git add -i` prints in the main loop when question mark is
entered.
