(discussed on the distutils-sig list)

Altered --help output to give some example commands up front.

Altered --help-commands to give a clearer description of 'clean'.

This doesn't break anything, adds some helpful content to
the help text, and got one 1+ (and no negative comments)
over on distutils-sig:

Thanks for the patch. Applied as

dist.py 1.73
clean.py 1.17
NEWS 1.1249

NOT backported to 2.4, as this doesn't fix a bug.
