Maybe add: “(see @option{--type} below.)”

OK to push with this change!

To make it even more useful, I wonder if we should add a ‘description’
field to updaters.

The best way to do that would probably be by definition
<upstream-updater> with ‘define-record-type*’ (because ‘description’ is
a known keyword for xgettext, as per po/guix/Makevars.)

WDYT?
