Emphasize target is on remote host. List supported file types.

From the documentation it is not immediately clear that the 'target'
option refers to a location on the remote host. This change emphasizes that.
In addition to .sql files, .bz2 and .gz files are supported for dumps and
restores. This is now documented.
