this helps users to know what kind of option is:
- no value is required(flag option)
- value is required
- value is required, and multiple occurrences are allowed
each kinds are shown as below:
-f --force force push
-e --ssh CMD specify ssh command to use
-b --branch BRANCH [+] a specific branch you would like to push
if one or more 3rd type options are shown, explanation for '[+]' mark
is also shown as footnote.
Some implementations of ui.label() (HTML versions in particular) must escape
the provided text and then markup the text with their tags. When this marked
up text is then passed to ui.write(), we must label the text as 'ui.labeled'
so the implementation knows not to escape it a second time (exposing the initial
markup).
This required the addition of a 'ui.plain' label for text that is purposefully
not marked up.
I was a little pedantic here, passing even ' ' strings to ui.label() when it
would be included with other labeled text in a ui.write() call. But it seemed
appropriate to lean to the side of caution.
Trying as much as possible to consistently:
- use a present tense predicate followed by a direct object
- verb referring directly to the functionality provided
(ie. not "add command that does this" but simple "do that")
- keep simple and to the point, leaving details for the long help
(width is tight, possibly even more so for translations)

This fixes issue 1569. hg churn <path> now returns only the number
of lines changed in the path, if the path is specified by filtering
files through a match filter at the changeset level. test-churn
has been updated to take care of this issue.
Changes docstrings to begin with a lowercase word. Only docstrings
used in help output is changed.
Scripts are not expected to grep the output of 'hg help' so this
change should pose no problem with regard to the compatibility rules.
