User Manual: Slight changes on OSTCTools import

Don't give sensation that OSTCTools is a H&W software, which it isn't.
Little adds on supported DCs and other considerations.

_OSTC Tools_ is a Microsoft-based suite of dive download and dive management tools for the OSTC
family of dive computers. _OSTC Tools_ downloads dive data from the dive computer and stores it
as a binary file with file extension _.dive_ . Subsurface can directly import these files when using
the universal import dialogue. From the dropdown list at the bottom right select _All files_.
This makes the _OSTC Tools_ dive logs visible in the file list panel. Select one or more
dive, then click the _Open_ button. The OSTC dives are shown in the *Dive List* panel.

_OSTCTools Files (.dive .DIVE)_. This makes the _OSTC Tools_ dive logs visible in the file list

Actually, every H&W device supported by OSTCTools can be imported to _Subsurface_, this includes
OSTC, OSTC Mk2, OSTC 2N/2C, OSTC3, OSTC Sport, and probably although untested, Frog, OSTC2 and
OSTC CR.
Please, remember that OSTCTools is *not* a true diving log software, but a useful set of tools
for analysis and management of OSTC devices. This way, only raw dive computer data will be
achieved with the import to _Subsurface_; user still have to manually complete the rest of
data which may be of some importance for him (buddies, equipment, notes, etc).
