IMHO the simpler way is just not to display the capabilities on
'info migrate' at all.  If people want the list of capabilities there's
already 'info migrate_capabiltiies' they can use.

It was nice displaying them at the start of 'info migrate'
when we only had a few, but nowe we've got so many it's perhaps
easier just to omit them.
