git-svn: documentation updates
* Clarify that 'init' requires an argument
* Remove instances of 'SVN_URL' in the manpage, it's not an
environment variable.
* Refer to 'Additional Fetch Arguments' when documenting 'fetch'
* document --authors-file / -A option
Thanks to Pavel Roskin and Seth Falcon for bringing these issues
to my attention.
