extensions: improve the consistency of synopses

Trying as much as possible to consistently:
 - use a present tense predicate followed by a direct object
 - verb referring directly to the functionality provided
   (ie. not "add command that does this" but simple "do that")
 - keep simple and to the point, leaving details for the long help
   (width is tight, possibly even more so for translations)

Thanks to timeless, Martin Geisler, Rafael Villar Burke, Dan Villiom
Podlaski Christiansen and others for the helpful suggestions.

'''delete files not tracked from the working directory'''

    '''removes files not tracked by Mercurial

    Delete files not known to Mercurial. This is useful to test local
    and uncommitted changes in an otherwise-clean source tree.

    This means that purge will delete:
     - Unknown files: files marked with "?" by "hg status"
     - Empty directories: in fact Mercurial ignores directories unless
       they contain files under source control management
    But it will leave untouched:
     - Modified and unmodified tracked files
     - Ignored files (unless --all is specified)
     - New files added to the repository (with "hg add")

    If directories are given on the command line, only files in these
    directories are considered.

    Be careful with purge, as you could irreversibly delete some files
    you forgot to add to the repository. If you only want to print the
    list of files that this program would delete, use the --print
    option.
