help: revise explanation about capability check while selecting merge tool

This is follow up of 7c6044634957 and cded904f7acc.

This patch adds explanations about:

  - notation in capability columns in the table
  - how capabilities of external merge tools are treated

  $ hg init master

  $ echo inside > inside/f1

(The lfs extension does nothing here, but this test ensures that its hook that
determines whether to add the lfs requirement, respects the narrow boundaries.)

Can not modify dirstate outside

  $ mkdir outside
  $ touch outside/f1
  $ hg debugwalk -v -I 'relglob:f1'
  * matcher:
  <includematcher includes='(?:(?:|.*/)f1(?:/|$))'>
  f  inside/f1  inside/f1
  $ hg add outside/f1
  abort: cannot track 'outside/f1' - it is outside the narrow clone
  [255]
  $ touch outside/f3
  $ hg add outside/f3
  abort: cannot track 'outside/f3' - it is outside the narrow clone
  [255]

But adding a truly excluded file shouldn't count

  $ hg add outside/f3 -X outside/f3

  $ rm -r outside

Can modify dirstate inside

  $ echo modified > inside/f1
  $ touch inside/f3
  $ hg add inside/f3
  $ hg status
  M inside/f1
  A inside/f3
  $ hg revert -qC .
  $ rm inside/f3

Can commit changes inside. Leaves outside unchanged.

  $ hg update -q 'desc("initial")'
  $ echo modified2 > inside/f1

Some filesystems (notably FAT/exFAT only store timestamps with 2
seconds of precision, so by sleeping for 3 seconds, we can ensure that
the timestamps of files stored by dirstate will appear older than the
dirstate file, and therefore we'll be able to get stable output from
debugdirstate. If we don't do this, the test can be slightly flaky.
