help/config: note 64-bit Windows registry key used with 32-bit Python
Before this patch the only place that documented the use of a different
registry key was on the wiki page for installing on Windows from
sources, while most users will use a pre-packaged installer and the
supplied help files.
This patch documents in the supplied help files that an alternate
registry key is used for the installation/system configuration file when
using 32-bit Python on a 64-bit Windows.

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.
