man/fstab-generator: fix option list and make formatting consistent

Browse Source 
Add "overlay", which is already mentioned further down below, to the
list of possible options.

Consistently use <literal> for possible values of systemd.volatile=,
rather than <param> or no special formatting.

Use yes/no rather than true/false as boolean since that is what's used
everywhere else and I'm already touching the lines anyway.
