This patch will affect how a lot of packages get presented to the user.

Run `M-x package-list-packages'.

Now go down to 'use-package' and press the button (RET) to pull up the
package summary.

At the bottom of that summary it says "See the `use-package' info manual
for more information.".  The "`use-package'" bit is a button will take
you to a Help buffer describing the macro.  This is not ideal as the
sentence is talking about the Info manual.

After my change the sentence will change too "See Info node
`(use-package)' for more information." where the "`(use-package)'" part
is a button that takes you to the info manual.
