diff: describe behavior by using --from/--to instead of varying revision count
I very recently updated the documentation to prefer `--from`/`--to`
over `-r`, but I missed the plain-text description of how the command
behaves when given different numbers of revisions (I guess I just
scanned the text for "-r"). This patch fixes that.

histedit: tweak `edit` message to try and guide users to our workflow
histedit predates evolve, so it drops you on an _uncommitted_ version
of the commit you're amending/splitting, which is in contrast to git
which expects you to use `git commit --amend` (I think - I'm basing
this on internal bug reports). My hope is that this output will guide
users a little more towards the expected workflow.
