doc: fix mistake about matching against directories in "pattern.txt"
This fixes mistake of documentation about matching against directories
in "pattern.txt" introduced by 50db996bccaf.
".hgignore" treats specified "glob:" pattern as same as one specified
for "-X" option: it can match against directories, too.
For reference, extra regexp string appended to specified pattern for
each types are listed below: see also "match.match()" and
"match._regex()" for detail.
============= ========== ===============
type cmdline -I/-X
============= ========== ===============
glob/relglob '$' '(?:/|$)'
path/relpath '(?:/|$)' '(?:/|$)'
re/relre (none) (none)
============= ========== ===============
Appending '$' means that the specified pattern should match against
only files.

All patterns, except for ``glob:`` specified in command line (not for

-against directories: files under matched directories are treated as
-matched.
