help: show value requirement and multiple occurrence of options

this helps users to know what kind of option is:

  - no value is required(flag option)
  - value is required
  - value is required, and multiple occurrences are allowed

each kinds are shown as below:

 -f --force              force push
 -e --ssh CMD            specify ssh command to use
 -b --branch BRANCH [+]  a specific branch you would like to push

if one or more 3rd type options are shown, explanation for '[+]' mark
is also shown as footnote.
