Ben Wiederhake 50a65f02a8 Manpages: Auto-generate many through ArgsParser
This set was hand-curated, guided by the questions:
- Does it have at least three options, i.e. is the help page
  non-trivial?
- Is the program unusual, i.e. does listing it in Help or on
  man.serenityos.org spread awareness?
- Is the program common, but we only implement a subset of 'common'
  flags?
