--help and help are successful commands so output should not go to error.
QE teams have requested this change, also users doing docker help | less
or docker run --help | less would expect this to work.
Usage statement should only be printed when the user asks for it.
Errors should print error message and then suggest the docker COMMAND --help
command to see usage information.
The current behaviour causes the user to have to search for the error message
and sometimes scrolls right off the screen. For example a error on a
"docker run" command is very difficult to diagnose.
Finally erros should always exit with a non 0 exit code, if the user
makes a CLI error.

Used the RETF rules provided by Wikipedia to fix some typographical
errors in the Markdown files of the documentation with the following

The -m flag permits the setting of a memory limit when running a Docker
container. The actual limit set must be a multiple of page size on Linux, so
whatever number the uses passes in will be rounded up if needed. Document this
behavior to prevent confusion. Also fixed several small formatting and grammar
issues in the docker run manpage.

Docker's --sig-proxy option sends all signals but one to a container. The
exception s SIGCHLD, which is deliberately ignored as it doesn't make sense to
send such a signal to a process in a container. Documentation updates will make
this less confusing if anyone does attempt to do this.
