--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.

I've re-jigged the run man page so that each option's text begins with the
cli's help text for that flag, and then ay subsequent lines in the man page
are carried forward.
