[PATCH 3/6] daemon doc + code comments: reword "alice" example

["Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason" <avarab@gmail.com>]

Improve on the "alice" example added in 603968d22b1 (daemon: extend
user-relative path notation., 2006-02-04). I found the previous
version of this documentation a bit confusing, and had to read the
code to see what it was doing.

I think explicitly spelling out that the --user-path option can be
user to provide an infix to stash in-between what we'll resolve
"~user" and the path after that is clearer, especially when coupled
with explicit examples of path resolution.

Finally, the previous documentation didn't mention that `path/foo`
could actually resolve to `path/foo.git`. That's implicitly covered
earlier in the documentation, let's make an explicit reference to that
here.
