Typo in user guide suggests that there's an -O* option

In https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/7.10.3/docs/html/users_guide/options-optimise.html it still correctly said:

No -O*-type option specified:

    This is taken to mean: “Please compile quickly ...

But in https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/latest/docs/html/users_guide/using-optimisation.html#ghc-flag--O* it says:

-O*

    This is taken to mean: “Please compile quickly ...

The No -O*-type option specified: bit must have been accidentally dropped in the conversion to the new user guide format.

(I dared put this into 8.2.1 because it's probably trivial to fix if one understands the syntax language that the user guide is written in.)
