help: format command and option list help using RST

This patch changes the function which generates help text about commands and
options to use RST formatting. Tables describing options have been formatted
using RST table markup for some time already, so their appearance does not
change. Command lists, however, change appearance.

To format non-verbose command lists, RST field list markup was chosen, because
it resembles the old format:

<http://docutils.sourceforge.net/docs/user/rst/quickref.html#field-lists>

In the old (hand-coded) format of non-verbose command lists, the left column is
12 characters wide. Our minirst implementation formats field lists with a left
column 14 characters wide, so this patch changes the appearance of help output
correspondingly:

<http://markmail.org/message/krl4cxopsnii7s6z?q=mercurial+reinert+from:%22Olav+Reinert%22&page=2>

The minirst markup most closely resembling the old verbose command lists is
definition lists. But using it would cause a blank line to be inserted between
each command definition, making the output excessively long, and no more
useful than before. To avoid this, I chose to use field lists also for verbose
command help, resulting in output like this example:

 add           add the specified files on the next commit
 annotate, blame
               show changeset information by line for each file
 clone         make a copy of an existing repository
 commit, ci    commit the specified files or all outstanding changes
 diff          diff repository (or selected files)
 export        dump the header and diffs for one or more changesets
 forget        forget the specified files on the next commit
 init          create a new repository in the given directory
 log, history  show revision history of entire repository or files
 merge         merge working directory with another revision
 phase         set or show the current phase name
 pull          pull changes from the specified source
 push          push changes to the specified destination
 qdiff         diff of the current patch and subsequent modifications
 qinit         init a new queue repository (DEPRECATED)
 qnew          create a new patch
 qpop          pop the current patch off the stack
 qpush         push the next patch onto the stack
 qrefresh      update the current patch
 remove, rm    remove the specified files on the next commit
 serve         start stand-alone webserver
 status, st    show changed files in the working directory
 summary, sum  summarize working directory state
 update, up, checkout, co
               update working directory (or switch revisions)

This change is a move towards generating all help text as a list of strings
marked up with RST.

  use external program to diff repository (or selected files)
  
      Show differences between revisions for the specified files, using an
      external program. The default program used is diff, with default options
      "-Npru".
  
      To select a different program, use the -p/--program option. The program
      will be passed the names of two directories to compare. To pass additional
      options to the program, use -o/--option. These will be passed before the
      names of the directories to compare.
  
      When two revision arguments are given, then changes are shown between
      those revisions. If only one revision is specified then that revision is
      compared to the working directory, and, when no revisions are specified,
      the working directory files are compared to its parent.

  $ hg help --extension extdiff
  extdiff extension - command to allow external programs to compare revisions
  
  The extdiff Mercurial extension allows you to use external programs to compare
  revisions, or revision with working directory. The external diff programs are
  called with a configurable set of options and two non-option arguments: paths
  to directories containing snapshots of files to compare.
  
  The extdiff extension also allows you to configure new diff commands, so you
  do not need to type "hg extdiff -p kdiff3" always.
  
    [extdiff]
    # add new command that runs GNU diff(1) in 'context diff' mode
    cdiff = gdiff -Nprc5
    ## or the old way:
    #cmd.cdiff = gdiff
    #opts.cdiff = -Nprc5
  
    # add new command called vdiff, runs kdiff3
    vdiff = kdiff3
  
    # add new command called meld, runs meld (no need to name twice)
    meld =
  
    # add new command called vimdiff, runs gvimdiff with DirDiff plugin
    # (see http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=102) Non
    # English user, be sure to put "let g:DirDiffDynamicDiffText = 1" in
    # your .vimrc
    vimdiff = gvim -f "+next" \
              "+execute 'DirDiff' fnameescape(argv(0)) fnameescape(argv(1))"
  
  Tool arguments can include variables that are expanded at runtime:
  
    $parent1, $plabel1 - filename, descriptive label of first parent
    $child,   $clabel  - filename, descriptive label of child revision
    $parent2, $plabel2 - filename, descriptive label of second parent
    $root              - repository root
    $parent is an alias for $parent1.
  
  The extdiff extension will look in your [diff-tools] and [merge-tools]
  sections for diff tool arguments, when none are specified in [extdiff].
  
    [extdiff]
    kdiff3 =
  
    [diff-tools]
    kdiff3.diffargs=--L1 '$plabel1' --L2 '$clabel' $parent $child
  
  You can use -I/-X and list of file or directory names like normal "hg diff"
  command. The extdiff extension makes snapshots of only needed files, so
  running the external diff program will actually be pretty fast (at least
  faster than having to compare the entire tree).
  
  list of commands:
  
   extdiff       use external program to diff repository (or selected files)
  
  use "hg -v help extdiff" to show builtin aliases and global options

  $ hg help multirevs
  Specifying Multiple Revisions
  
      When Mercurial accepts more than one revision, they may be specified
      individually, or provided as a topologically continuous range, separated
      by the ":" character.
  
      The syntax of range notation is [BEGIN]:[END], where BEGIN and END are
      revision identifiers. Both BEGIN and END are optional. If BEGIN is not
      specified, it defaults to revision number 0. If END is not specified, it
      defaults to the tip. The range ":" thus means "all revisions".
  
      If BEGIN is greater than END, revisions are treated in reverse order.
  
      A range acts as a closed interval. This means that a range of 3:5 gives 3,
      4 and 5. Similarly, a range of 9:6 gives 9, 8, 7, and 6.
  
  use "hg help -c multirevs" to see help for the multirevs command
