backout: make help more explicit about what backout does

The help for backout explains:

   The backout command merges the reverse effect of the reverted
   changeset into the working directory.

Unfortunately, that does not make it obvious to a newcomer what the
backout command does.  Since it performs a 3-way merge, what is the
common ancestor?  Will the result be automatically committed?  What is
this reverted changeset --- is it the rev passed with -r on the
command line or its inverse?

So try to clarify the description, avoiding jargon and being
explicit about what happens from the user's perspective.

Thanks to Gilles Moris, Steve Borho, Kevin Bullock, and timeless for
help.
