help-smsc-knem.txt: fix incorrect messages, remove stale messages
Removed a bunch of stale messages that are not relevant to this show_help text file any more (they were left over from before the smsc framework). Additionally, update the knem show help messages to show the correct MCA varable name and value. Also fudge the message a bit to no longer specifically mention the sm BTL. Thanks to Benjamin Kitor @BKitor for reporting the issue. Signed-off-by: Jeff Squyres <[email protected]>
