bisect: expand help text to explain REV argument and --noupdate

6920:7e5e13bee8f4

    This command helps to find changesets which introduce problems.
    To use, mark the earliest changeset you know exhibits the problem
    as bad, then mark the latest changeset which is free from the
    problem as good. Bisect will update your working directory to a
    revision for testing. Once you have performed tests, mark the
    working directory as bad or good and bisect will either update to
    another candidate changeset or announce that it has found the bad
    revision.

    To use, mark the earliest changeset you know exhibits the problem
    as bad, then mark the latest changeset which is free from the
    problem as good. Bisect will update your working directory to a
    revision for testing (unless the --noupdate option is specified).
    Once you have performed tests, mark the working directory as bad
    or good and bisect will either update to another candidate changeset
    or announce that it has found the bad revision.
    
    As a shortcut, you can also use the revision argument to mark a
    revision as good or bad without checking it out first.
