    Remove mention of tbz (tarred-bzip) support

    tbz is technically still supported by create_archive(), but without it
    being included in the supported_archive_formats definition, isn't easily
    chosen as an option and nobody seems to miss it.

    scfg: say what %f, %s and %g mean in a transfer-protocol command line

    The File Transfer Protocols help named the four command lines a protocol
    can have but never said what the specifiers substituted into them expand
    to, so nothing told a sysop how the batch forms differ from the
    single-file ones.

    Spell out all three, and in particular that a batch download offers a
    choice: %f is a list-file holding one full path per line, while %s
    expands to every one of those paths on the command line itself. The
    latter is the trap -- cmdstr() truncates the expanded command line at 511 characters, the size of its output buffer on every platform, so %s
    silently drops files from a large batch. The stock entries all use the list-file form, @%f.
