docs: enhance manual page readability

This patch adds consistant underlining to arguments, and unifies
spacing. Also the wording for -L is made much better, it's been
common to hear the manual was unclear about that option.

Output format. Currently there is text, html, full-html and csv
(comma-separated values). Default is text. Standard html (h) outputs only
the HTML tables, and is useful for embeding more complex web pages.
Full-html (H) provides complete HTML headers, etc., including in-line CSS.
Output format xml (x) is similar to the dhcpstatus Perl module output. The

Limit what will be printed. Syntax is similar to chmod permission string.
The limit string uses two digits which vary between 0 to 7. The first digit
determines which headers to display, and the second digit determines which
numeric analysis tables to include in the output. The following values are
"OR'd" together to create the desired output. The default is 77.
