docs: prefer `hg diff --from/--to` over `-r`

This patch includes updating away from the broken `hg diff -r
'date(...)'` (see not in previous patch).

Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D9555

Test how largefiles abort in case the disk runs full

  $ hg init alice
  $ cd alice
  $ echo "this is a very big file" > big
  $ hg add --large big
  $ hg commit --config extensions.criple=$TESTTMP/criple.py -m big
  abort: No space left on device

The largefile is not created in .hg/largefiles:

  $ ls .hg/largefiles
  dirstate

The user cache is not even created:

  >>> import os; os.path.exists("$HOME/.cache/largefiles/")
  False

Make the commit with space on the device:

  $ hg commit -m big

Now make a clone with a full disk, and make sure lfutil.link function
makes copies instead of hardlinks:

  $ cd ..
  $ hg --config extensions.criple=$TESTTMP/criple.py clone --pull alice bob
