This commit removes the recommendation in the create-usb man page for
the user to update the summary in the source repo before using the
create-usb command. I'm not sure where I got the idea that create-usb
depends on a summary in the source repo. I went back to the first commit
that introduced the create-usb command and even using that a summary
isn't required, so it seems unlikely that this changed recently.
This is good news because the exclusive lock that's taken for summary
updates has been causing problems on Endless (due to other processes
having a lock for the duration of the 30 second acquire time out
period).

Currently on Endless OS, the OSTree ref for the operating system is
something like os/eos/amd64/eos3, so that's what gets passed to `ostree
create-usb` when copying the OS to a USB drive (for offline updates).
However, when eos-updater checks for updates it pulls the metadata for a
candidate commit and in so doing updates that eos3 ref to point to the
partial commit being examined as a potential update rather than the
deployed commit. This causes `ostree create-usb` to fail with an error
like "No such metadata object
7fb045cb2d1f1f3a81bfc157c6128ff443eb56350315b9536bdb56aee0659863.dirtree".
OSTree creates deployment refs that look like "ostree/1/1/0" to maintain
a pointer to the deployed commit, but create-usb can't use these because
it shows up in the summary as just a ref, not a collection-ref.
So this commit adds a --commit option to the create-usb command, so we
can use the appropriate ref but copy the deployed commit rather than a
(potentially partial) update commit.
