From: Colin Lord
Subject: [Qemu-trivial] [PATCH v2] help: Update help to reflect that GTK is the default
Date: Fri, 5 Aug 2016 14:03:15 -0400

Updates the help messages to reflect that GTK is the default display (if
enabled), not SDL.

 v2: Update to try to implement Paolo's suggested wordings. It looks to
 me like the subsections get wrapped at 72 lines, which mean there was a
 bit of a ripple effect and the changes look bigger than they are.
