remotes: New command, displays a compact table of remotes that contain files. (Thanks, anarcat for display code and mastensg for inspiration.)
Note that it would be possible to extend the display to show all repositories. But there can be a lot of repositories that are not set up as remotes, and it would significantly clutter the display to show them all. Since we're not showing all repositories, it's not worth trying to show numcopies count either. I decided to embrace these limitations and call the command remotes.
