Made --progress use ir-chk instead of to-chk when the incremental
recursion scan is still active. Mention the output change more prominently in the NEWS file. Updated the --progress output in the manpage, with mention of the new "ir-chk" string's meaning.

+
+ - Output numbers in 3-digit groups by default (e.g. 1,234,567). See the
+ --human-readable option for a way to turn it off. See also the daemon's
+ "log format" parameter and related command-line options (including
+ --out-format) for a modifier that can be used to request digit-grouping
+ or human-readable output in log escapes. (Note that log output is
+ unchanged by default.)
+
+ - The output of the --progress option has changed: the string "xfer" was
+ shortened to "xfr", and the string "to-check" was shortened to "to-chk",
+ both designed to make room for the (by default) wider display of file
+ size numbers without making the total line-length longer. Also, when
+ incremental recursion is enabled, the string "ir-chk" will be used
+ instead of "to-chk" up until the incremental-recursion scan is done,
+ letting you know that the value to check and the total value will still
+ be increasing as new files are found.
