Add a report summary file, ${WRKDIR}/sysmerge.log, that will include all
worthy post run information instead of spreading info into several files. Tweak some output while here. Enchance description for the -S and -X options; thanks to sthen@ and jmc@ for finding the correct wording... it was not as easy as it seems. Fix a typo in the man page, spotted by jmc@ ok sthen@ jmc@
