Man page: make synopsis comprehensive
Document --quiltrc, --trace, and --version options explicitly. Separate the informational operation modes for reporting help and version information. Mark up synopsis canonically (literals in bold, variable content in italics, and roman for "synopsis language" (option brackets, etc.)). Use groff_man(7)'s SY and YS macros for more attractive presentation. [JD: Restore [options] and strip duplicate line]
