crecord: rewrite help string to avoid mentioning "crecord" Despite its heritage, "crecord" is now mostly Mercurial-internal jargon. I find it better to call it "the curses hunk selector". Also slightly rewrote the part about which commands can use it. While I do believe that commit, shelve, and revert are the only commands in core that can use it, Evolve also adds at least amend and uncommit to the list.
