help config: explain that config files do not exist by default

Inspired by critique given on StackOverflow where a user writes:

  I can have a good guess at what "%USERPROFILE%" might signify but
  none of the files listed in the "hg help config" output exist after
  running the installer. Previous experience would suggest that
  missing files mean something somewhere has gone seriously wrong.

Setup:

create a little extension that has 3 side-effects:
1) ensure changelog data is not inlined
2) make revlog to use lazyparser
3) test that repo.lookup() works
1 and 2 are preconditions for the bug; 3 is the bug.

  > from mercurial import extensions, node, revlog
  > 
  > def reposetup(ui, repo):
  >     def wrapcommit(orig, *args, **kwargs):
  >         result = orig(*args, **kwargs)
  >         tip1 = node.short(repo.changelog.tip())
  >         tip2 = node.short(repo.lookup(tip1))
  >         assert tip1 == tip2
  >         ui.write('new tip: %s\n' % tip1)
  >         return result
  > 
  >     extensions.wrapfunction(repo, 'commit', wrapcommit)

  $ hg init repo1
  $ cd repo1
  $ echo a > a
  $ hg commit -A -m'add a with a long commit message to make the changelog a bit bigger'
  adding a
  new tip: 553596fad57b

Test that new changesets are visible to repo.lookup():

  $ echo a >> a
  $ hg commit -m'one more commit to demonstrate the bug'
  new tip: 799ae3599e0e

  $ hg tip
  changeset:   1:799ae3599e0e
  tag:         tip
  user:        test

  summary:     one more commit to demonstrate the bug
