scmutil: rewrite docstring for filecache

The old docstring was incorrect in that it said that subsequent
calls perform a stat() and refresh the object if things change.
This is not how things work: __get__ populates obj.__dict__[self.sname]
with the result of the decorated function and returns this value
without validation on subsequent calls, if available.

The correct usage of this type is kinda wonky. It would probably
benefit from a refactor. But I don't have time to do that right
now. But we can change the docstring so others aren't entrapped by
its lies (like I was when using repofilecache in a Mozilla extension).

Create an empty repo:

  $ hg init a
  $ cd a

Try some commands:

  $ hg log
  $ hg grep wah
  [1]
  $ hg manifest
  $ hg verify
  checking changesets
  checking manifests
  crosschecking files in changesets and manifests
  checking files
  0 files, 0 changesets, 0 total revisions

Check the basic files created:

  $ ls .hg
  00changelog.i
  requires
  store

Should be empty:

  $ ls .hg/store

Poke at a clone:

  $ cd ..
  $ hg clone a b
  updating to branch default
  0 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  $ cd b
  $ hg verify
