Documentation/git.txt: command re-classification 

This adds two new classes (pure-helpers and "Interacting with
Others") to the command list in the main manual page.  The
latter class is primarily about foreign SCM interface and is
placed before low-level (plumbing) commands.

Also it promotes a handful commands to mainporcelain category
while demoting some others.
