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
Path conflict checking is currently disabled by default because of issue5716.
Turn it on for this test.
