gendoc: use real ui in place of stdout
ui attributes will be required by a help function, so a file object can't be
used as a fake ui.

When Mercurial accepts more than one revision, they may be specified individually, or provided as a topologically continuous range, separated by the ":" character. The syntax of range notation is [BEGIN]:[END], where BEGIN and END are revision identifiers. Both BEGIN and END are optional. If BEGIN is not specified, it defaults to revision number 0. If END is not specified, it defaults to the tip. The range ":" thus means "all revisions". If BEGIN is greater than END, revisions are treated in reverse order. A range acts as a closed interval. This means that a range of 3:5 gives 3, 4 and 5. Similarly, a range of 9:6 gives 9, 8, 7, and 6.
