Here's a bare-bones pass at documenting the difference between USE_ and 
WANT_ variables.  WITH_ and WITHOUT_ have been removed because of the 
optionsng rework, and there is a Knobs section later in the PH that 
already describes them.

This section has been added to the end of the Dependencies section, 
currently 5.7.  It could be moved elsewhere.
