help: show "[no-]" only for default-on Flags
As Anton (av6) pointed out, the "[no-]" is confusing for action flags
like `hg bookmark --delete`. We could come up with a way of indicating
which flags are action flags (e.g. use None for the default value
instead of False). However, it's probably also unlikely that users
will want to negate even non-action flags like --hidden.
One of the more common flags where the "[no-]" prefix would be useful
is `hg evolve --update`. The reason it's helpful there is that it
defaults to on. So I think we can simply include "[no-]" only for
flags that are on by default (and thus require the user to add the
"[no-]" for the option to have any effect).
Note that there are use cases for negating flags that already off by
default. For example, you may have an alias for `hg log -G --hidden -T
foo` and now want to pass "--no-hidden" to that alias. However, I
think that users who want that are likely to be advanced enough that
they've already learnt about the "no-" prefix by seeing it somewhere
else.

Mercurial supports generating standalone "bundle" files that hold repository
data. These "bundles" are typically saved locally and used later or exchanged
between different repositories, possibly on different machines. Example
commands using bundles are :hg:`bundle` and :hg:`unbundle`.
Generation of bundle files is controlled by a "bundle specification"
("bundlespec") string. This string tells the bundle generation process how
to create the bundle.
A "bundlespec" string is composed of the following elements:
type
A string denoting the bundle format to use.
compression
Denotes the compression engine to use compressing the raw bundle data.
parameters
Arbitrary key-value parameters to further control bundle generation.
A "bundlespec" string has the following formats:
<type>
The literal bundle format string is used.
<compression>-<type>
The compression engine and format are delimited by a hyphen (``-``).
Optional parameters follow the ``<type>``. Parameters are URI escaped
``key=value`` pairs. Each pair is delimited by a semicolon (``;``). The
first parameter begins after a ``;`` immediately following the ``<type>``
value.
Available Types
===============
The following bundle <type> strings are available:
v1
Produces a legacy "changegroup" version 1 bundle.
This format is compatible with nearly all Mercurial clients because it is
the oldest. However, it has some limitations, which is why it is no longer
the default for new repositories.
``v1`` bundles can be used with modern repositories using the "generaldelta"
storage format. However, it may take longer to produce the bundle and the
resulting bundle may be significantly larger than a ``v2`` bundle.
``v1`` bundles can only use the ``gzip``, ``bzip2``, and ``none`` compression
formats.
v2
Produces a version 2 bundle.
Version 2 bundles are an extensible format that can store additional
repository data (such as bookmarks and phases information) and they can
store data more efficiently, resulting in smaller bundles.
Version 2 bundles can also use modern compression engines, such as
``zstd``, making them faster to compress and often smaller.
Available Compression Engines
=============================
The following bundle <compression> engines can be used:
.. bundlecompressionmarker
Examples
========
``v2``
Produce a ``v2`` bundle using default options, including compression.
``none-v1``
Produce a ``v1`` bundle with no compression.
``zstd-v2``
Produce a ``v2`` bundle with zstandard compression using default
settings.
``zstd-v1``
This errors because ``zstd`` is not supported for ``v1`` types.
