rev-list --bisect is used by git bisect, but never together with
--first-parent. Because rev-list --bisect together with --first-parent
is not handled currently, and even leads to segfaults, refuse to use
both options together.

Changes since v3:

* Added an ifdef::git-rev-list[] guard around the warning in the
  --first-parent section so that it only shows up in `man git-rev-list`
  and not in `man git log`

* Added the warning also to the --bisect section.
