#13582: Manual pages look messy

I do not know, how manual pages have been created for mythtv commands, but
they could be created automatically by help2man, if --help and --version
options were implemented properly according to GNU guidelines. For
example, --help should output to stdout, not to stderr:
https://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/_002d_002dversion.html
https://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/_002d_002dhelp.html
