doc: add -F/--fixed-strings to "common options"

Browse Source 
#607 is the top result for the search "ripgrep disable regex". I think
it makes sense to add it to the user guide, since it's a very useful
flag.

@ -992,6 +992,8 @@ used options that will likely impact how you use ripgrep on a regular basis.
* `-S/--smart-case`: This is similar to `--ignore-case`, but disables itself
if the pattern contains any uppercase letters. Usually this flag is put into
alias or a config file.
* `-F/--fixed-strings`: Disable regular expression matching and treat the pattern
as a literal string.
* `-w/--word-regexp`: Require that all matches of the pattern be surrounded
by word boundaries. That is, given `pattern`, the `--word-regexp` flag will
cause ripgrep to behave as if `pattern` were actually `\b(?:pattern)\b`.
