Update the docs for cat-file command. Some new formatting atoms added because of reusing ref-filter code. We do not support cat-file atoms in general formatting logic (there is just the support for cat-file), that is why some of the atoms are still explained in cat-file docs. We need to move these explanations when atoms will be supported by other commands.

You can specify the information shown for each object by using a custom `<format>`. The `<format>` is copied literally to stdout for each object, with placeholders of the form `%(atom)` expanded, followed by a -newline. The available atoms are: - -`objectname`:: - The 40-hex object name of the object. - -`objecttype`:: - The type of the object (the same as `cat-file -t` reports). - -`objectsize`:: - The size, in bytes, of the object (the same as `cat-file -s` - reports). +newline. The available atoms are the same as that of +linkgit:git-for-each-ref[1], but there are some additional ones: `objectsize:disk`:: The size, in bytes, that the object takes up on disk.
