Add the words "on destination machine" to the --compare-dist description

in rsync.yo.  Re-ran yodl2man which I see pulled in a few other changes
from rsync.yo that hadn't yet made it into rsync.1.

the temporary files in the receiving directory.
dit(bf(--compare-dest=DIR)) This option instructs rsync to use DIR as an
additional directory to compare destination files against when doing
transfers. This is useful for doing transfers to a new destination while
leaving existing files intact, and then doing a flash-cutover when all
files have been successfully transferred (for example by moving directories
around and removing the old directory, although this requires also doing
the transfer with -I to avoid skipping files that haven't changed). This
option increases the usefulness of --partial because partially transferred
files will remain in the new temporary destination until they have a chance
to be completed. If DIR is a relative path, it is relative to the
destination directory.
