What does "RM" mean in the output?

Might be nice to have this explained somewhere.

Yeah, improving the documents would be a must. Some help messages are needed to be updated as well.

As far I could see, the new 0.4.0 release works slightly different in terms of:

1. Packages that are removed after an update are marked as RM
2. --depth 0 literally means checking only the root now (note that there was a related issue just got fixed Inconsistent output caused by --root parameter #47)

And by the way, is the provided example an actual output? Coz I just had a glance at aho-corasick and found that memchr was still in its dependency list.

[steveklabnik]

This is actual output, yeah. I forget what project I used it on.... gah!

@steveklabnik I'm working on #51 and RM has been replaced by Removed. Apparently it turned out that saving several characters was completely unnecessary and even confusing. 😅

This label is what you get when a dependency is removed from the dependency tree after an update.

I was a little confused by Removed. I think Superfluous or Unnecessary might be more precise.
