git-cherry-pick.txt: do not use 'ORIG_HEAD' in example

Commit 67ac1e1d57 (cherry-pick/revert: add support for
-X/--strategy-option, 2010-12-10) added an example to the documentation
of 'git cherry-pick'. This example mentions how to abort a failed
cherry-pick and retry with an additional merge strategy option.

The command used in the example to abort the cherry-pick is 'git reset
--merge ORIG_HEAD', but cherry-pick does not write 'ORIG_HEAD' before
starting its operation. So this command would checkout a commit
unrelated to what was at HEAD when the user invoked cherry-pick.

Use 'git cherry-pick --abort' instead.
