Update documentation for "git branch", "git for-each-ref" and "git tag" with notes explaining what happens when passed multiple --contains or --no-contains filters. This behavior is useful to document prior to enabling multiple merged/no-merged filters, in order to demonstrate consistent behavior between merged/no-merged and contains/no-contains filters.
