test: update test-bundle2-format.t comment
Now that bundle2 is used by default for all exchanges, this comment is obviously
out of date. Having deep testing of the API and expected behavior of the format
and its processing is still valuable, so the comment is updated.

Some commands allow the user to specify a date, e.g.: - backout, commit, import, tag: Specify the commit date. - log, revert, update: Select revision(s) by date. Many date formats are valid. Here are some examples: - ``Wed Dec 6 13:18:29 2006`` (local timezone assumed) - ``Dec 6 13:18 -0600`` (year assumed, time offset provided) - ``Dec 6 13:18 UTC`` (UTC and GMT are aliases for +0000) - ``Dec 6`` (midnight) - ``13:18`` (today assumed) - ``3:39`` (3:39AM assumed) - ``3:39pm`` (15:39) - ``2006-12-06 13:18:29`` (ISO 8601 format) - ``2006-12-6 13:18`` - ``2006-12-6`` - ``12-6`` - ``12/6`` - ``12/6/6`` (Dec 6 2006) - ``today`` (midnight) - ``yesterday`` (midnight) - ``now`` - right now Lastly, there is Mercurial's internal format: - ``1165411109 0`` (Wed Dec 6 13:18:29 2006 UTC) This is the internal representation format for dates. The first number is the number of seconds since the epoch (1970-01-01 00:00 UTC). The second is the offset of the local timezone, in seconds west of UTC (negative if the timezone is east of UTC). The log command also accepts date ranges: - ``<DATE`` - at or before a given date/time - ``>DATE`` - on or after a given date/time - ``DATE to DATE`` - a date range, inclusive - ``-DAYS`` - within a given number of days of today
