doc: fix hex code escapes in git-ls-files
The --format option on the git-ls-files man page states that `%xx`
interpolates to the character with hex code `xx`. This mirrors the
documentation and behavior of `git for-each-ref --format=...`. However,
in reality it requires the character with code `XX` to be specified as
`%xXX`, mirroring the behaviour of `git log --format`.
