Converting callers. Straightforward.

This documentation to me sounds like the question you asked on-list the
other day: "does replace-all turn many configs into one, or many configs
into many with the same value?" Is it reflected in user-facing
documentation? Looks like no - you might have a good opportunity here to
make that more clear.

Well, I wanted to complain about using 'unsigned' instead of 'unsigned
int', but 'git grep -P "unsigned(?! int)"' tells me that it's not a
thing anybody else seems to mind. So I'll just grumble in my corner
instead :)

Huh, I wonder why 'store.multi_replace' wasn't used here before, since
it was bothered to be set at earlier. Ah well.

Nice opportunity to make the header a little easier to read here.
Thanks.
