[Rd] documentation for contrasts and contrasts<- (PR#607)

[Setzer.Woodrow@epamail.epa.gov]

The documentation (in ver 1.1) for contrasts and contrasts<- does not list all
the arguments for those functions.  In addition to x, the factor whose contrasts
are being extracted or set, contrasts() has the argument 'contrasts=TRUE', and
contrasts<-() has the argument 'how.many'.

It was this latter that had me flummoxed, because I wanted to reparametrize a
model by specifying a full-rank contrast matrix (fitting without an intercept).
