Revert changes menu item in log dialog

Hi folks,

Following some recent confusion on the users list I have realised that
our menu entries 'Revert changes from this revision' and 'Revert to
this revision' are possibly confusing due to using the term 'Revert'
when subversion already uses it to mean something entirely different.
The particular confusion was that to undo the effect of "Revert to
this revision" you have to "Revert".

The first one could be changed to "Undo changes in this revision", the
second is a little harder. "Undo to this revision"? "Undo changes
after this revision"?

It is easy to expand the docs to explain what will happen, but the
context menu needs to be clear in its meaning.

Thoughts?

Simon
