docs(README.md): Update commit message format options

- Add new commit format options: `repo` and `custom`
- Explain the `--learn` and `--author` flags for learning repository and author-specific commit styles
- Clarify that learned styles will be used for future commits unless overridden with `--format`

BREAKING CHANGE: The `--learn` flag now supports both repository-wide and author-specific commit style learning. The learned styles will be used as the default format going forward.
