'nethack --usage' and '?' menu
Write up a description of how the command line works on UNIX and put that in new file dat/usagehlp. Add support for |nethack --usage | --help | -? | ? to display it and exit. Also add a menu entry for nethack's help command to show it during play. That can be suppressed by uncommenting new '#define HIDE_USAGE' in config.h since it won't be useful on servers that don't give players access to command lines. New genl_display_file() just writes to stdout. opt_usage(), which calls it, might need some suid/sgid handling to make sure the output is done as the player rather than as nethack. doc/nethack.6 is already out of date again.
