revset-limit: use boolean testing instead of `len(revs) < 1`

I'm not sure why we wrote it that way. But smartsets have faster/lazier non-zero
testing than length computation.

Mercurial's documentation is kept in reStructuredText format, which is
a simple plain text format that's easy to read and edit:

  http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html

It's also convertible to a variety of other formats including standard
UNIX man page format and HTML. You'll need to install Docutils:

  http://docutils.sourceforge.net/

Use the Makefile in this directory to generate the man and HTML pages.
