pretty-options.txt: --notes accepts a ref instead of treeish
Although `--notes=` accepts and handles a tree-ish just fine, it isn't a common use-case for users to pass in bare trees. By having "treeish", it makes it harder to click in users' minds that the argument here is the same type as the `notes.displayRef` configuration variable, for example. Change `treeish` to `ref` so that it will be easier for users to make this connection. Note that we don't completely lose the notion that `--notes=` can accept a tree-ish. In git-notes.txt, we have It is also permitted for a notes ref to point directly to a tree object, in which case the history of the notes can be read with `git log -p -g <refname>`. which means that a hardcore user who wants to take advantage of this obscure use-case will be able to infer the connection and not be completely left in the dark.
