Patch for documentation bug in GNU indent 2.2.9

I have noticed that in indent version 2.2.9 (at least as distributed by
Gentoo), the option '-brf' can be specified and is appropriately used, but
is not documented in the either the info documentation or the manpage.  I've
appended a diff to indent.texinfo that documents this option.  I'm pretty
sure I've caught all the places it should be referenced, but as this is the
first time I've ever submitted a patch of any kind, I may have gotten
something a bit wrong.  Comments are of course welcome.
