doc: -h and --human-readable are equivalent to --block-size=human-readable
* doc/coreutils.texi (Common options): Mention that -h and
--human-readable are equivalent to --block-size=human-readable.
Documentation problem reported by Steve Ward in
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2007-06/msg00007.html>.
(du invocation): Use optSi rather than duplicating the macro's
contents (incorrectly, since we claimed a "B" was output).
