fix: highlight the required configuration and behavior of the fixer tools

The problem is that `hg help fix` didn't mention *how* to configure the tools,
and while I knew that `{rootpath}` existed in the configuration, I missed that
the tools require reading content from stdin.  (I configured `gofmt` to use
`{rootpath}`, and that had the effect of squashing all changes in a file at `.`
into the first commit and emptying that content from its descendants.)

Basically all this does is put a pointer in the default (command level) help to
the extension level help that mentions the configuration, and moves the
extension level help that documents reading from stdin and writing to stdout to
the top to give it more prominence.  The last sentence is adjusted a bit to
reflect the new location.

Set vars:

  $ CONTRIBDIR="$TESTDIR/../contrib"

Test simplemerge command:

  $ cp "$CONTRIBDIR/simplemerge" .
  $ echo base > base
  $ echo local > local
  $ cat base >> local
  $ cp local orig
  $ cat base > other
  $ echo other >> other

changing local directly

  $ "$PYTHON" simplemerge local base other && echo "merge succeeded"
  merge succeeded
  $ cat local
  local
  base
  other
  $ cp orig local

printing to stdout

  $ "$PYTHON" simplemerge -p local base other

local:

  $ cat local

conflicts

  $ cp base conflict-local

  $ echo not other >> conflict-local
  $ echo end >> conflict-local
  $ echo end >> conflict-other

  $ "$PYTHON" simplemerge -p conflict-local base conflict-other

too many labels

  $ "$PYTHON" simplemerge -p -L foo -L bar -L baz -L buz conflict-local base conflict-other
