"git help remote-helpers" did not work; 'remote-helpers' is not
a subcommand name but a concept, so its documentation should have
been in gitremote-helpers, not git-remote-helpers.
* jk/remote-helpers-doc:
Rename {git- => git}remote-helpers.txt
When looking up a topic via "git help <topic>", git-help prepends "git-"
to topics that are the names of commands (either builtin or found on the
path) and "git" (no hyphen) to any other topic name.
"git-remote-helpers" is not the name of a command, so "git help
remote-helpers" looks for "gitremote-helpers" and does not find it.
Fix this by renaming "git-remote-helpers.txt" to
"gitremote-helpers.txt".

Exercising the python remote helper framework is for another tool and
another test. This is about testing the remote-helper interface.
It's way simpler, it exercises the same features of remote helpers, it's
easy to read and understand, and it doesn't depend on python.
For now let's just copy the old remote-helpers test script, although
some of those tests don't make sense. In addition, this script would be
able to test other features not currently being tested.

While it's not a command meant to be used by actual users (hence, not
mentionned in git(1)), this command is a very precious help for
remote-helpers authors.
The best place for such technical doc is the source code, but users may
not find it without a link in a manpage.
