git-remote-helpers.txt: clarify options & ref list attributes

The documentation was misleading in that it gave the impression that
'for-push' could be used as a ref attribute in the output of the
'list' command. That is wrong.

Also, explicitly point out the connection between the commands
'list' and 'options' on the one hand, and the sections
'REF LIST ATTRIBUTES' and 'OPTIONS' on the other hand.

REF LIST ATTRIBUTES
-------------------
'for-push'::
The caller wants to use the ref list to prepare push
commands. A helper might chose to acquire the ref list by
opening a different type of connection to the destination.
The 'list' command produces a list of refs in which each ref
may be followed by a list of attributes. The following ref list
attributes are defined.
