Subject: [PATCH 1/2] watchdog: Clearer --help output.

Document all the (non-obsolete) options in the --help output,
including long variants.

The new output is:

./src/watchdog: unrecognized option '--help'
watchdog version 5.13, usage:
watchdog [options]
options:
  -F | --foreground          run in foreground
  -f | --force               don't sanity-check config
  -c | --config-file <file>  specify location of config file
  -s | --sync                sync filesystem
  -b | --softboot            soft-boot on error
  -q | --no-action           do not reboot or halt
  -v | --verbose             verbose messages
