help: pass subtopic into help()

Now that we have multiple directories where help topics can live,
we need a mechanism to access them. We already use "." to
separate topic from section. So it seems logical to also use "." to
denote the sub-directory of a topic.

This patch teaches the help command to parse out the possible
sub-topic and pass it to the help system.

#require symlink

  $ origdir=`pwd`

  $ hg init repo
  $ cd repo
  $ ln -s nothing dangling

avoid tar warnings about old timestamp

  $ hg ci -d '2000-01-01 00:00:00 +0000' -qAm 'add symlink'

  $ hg archive -t files ../archive
  $ hg archive -t tar -p tar ../archive.tar
  $ hg archive -t zip -p zip ../archive.zip

files

  $ cd "$origdir"
  $ cd archive
  $ readlink.py dangling
  dangling -> nothing

tar

  $ cd "$origdir"
  $ tar xf archive.tar
  $ cd tar
  $ readlink.py dangling

zip

  $ cd "$origdir"
  $ unzip archive.zip > /dev/null 2>&1
  $ cd zip
  $ readlink.py dangling
