doc: explain fetchRemoteHEADWarn advice

Browse Source 
When the user sets 'remote.<name>.followRemoteHEAD' to
'warn[-if-not-$branch]', git-fetch will report when a fetched HEAD
disagrees with the locally-configured remote's HEAD.  This additional
advice instructs the user how to deal with these warnings, but was
previously undocumented in git-config.
