General help message cleanup
Many of the help messages were not really helpful; for example, many
commands that take no arguments would not print a correct synopsis
line, but "No additional help available." which is not exactly wrong,
but not helpful either.
Commit ``Make "usage" messages more helpful.'' changed this
partially. But it also became clear that lots of "Usage" and "Help"
messages (fields "usage" and "help" in struct cmd_tbl_s respective)
were actually redundant.
This patch cleans this up - for example:
Before:
=> help dtt
dtt - Digital Thermometer and Thermostat
Usage:
dtt - Read temperature from digital thermometer and thermostat.
After:
=> help dtt
dtt - Read temperature from Digital Thermometer and Thermostat
Usage:
dtt
