Bug 50835 – prepare-ChangeLog --help doesn't mention --bug shorthand -b

• Component: Tools / Tests
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

I thought it was weird that prepare-ChangeLog mentions other shorthands like -o|--option,
but didn't mention -b for --bug; which I know works.

I did a google search and found:
http://perldoc.perl.org/Getopt/Long.html#Case-and-abbreviations

> Case and abbreviations
> ----------------------
> Without additional configuration, GetOptions() will ignore the case of option

> 
>     GetOptions ('length|height=f' => \$length, "head" => \$head);
>     
> This call will allow `--l` and `--L` for the length option, but requires at
> least `--hea` and `--hei` for the head and height options.

I figured I'd still update the code and output to match the others.

• explicitly adds "b" which seems to be the style of the code
• mentions -b in help
• mentions the <bugid>argument in help
