deprecate '-h' shorthand and remove '-help'

This deprecates the shorthand '-h', because we don't mention it as an option,
and it conflicts with the 'docker create -h/--hostname' option, so cannot be
used for all commands consistently.

This also removes the (single-dash) '-help' option. The single-dash variant was
marked "deprecated" in version 1.5.0 (basically, since it was added in
a2b529ead2), but still kept around to
prevent '-help' being treated as '-h -e -l -p', causing confusing
warnings.

The `docker import` command format 'file|URL|- [REPOSITORY [TAG]]' is deprecated since November 2013. It's no more supported.
### `-h` shorthand for `--help`
**Deprecated In Release: [v1.12.0](https://github.com/docker/docker/releases/tag/v1.12.0)**
**Target For Removal In Release: [v1.14.0](https://github.com/docker/docker/releases/tag/v1.12.0)**
The shorthand (`-h`) is less common than `--help` on Linux and cannot be used
on all subcommands (due to it conflicting with, e.g. `-h` / `--hostname` on
`docker create`). For this reason, the `-h` shorthand was not printed in the
"usage" output of subcommands, nor docummented, and is now marked "deprecated".
### `-e` and `--email` flags on `docker login`
**Deprecated In Release: [v1.11.0](https://github.com/docker/docker/releases/tag/v1.11.0)**

### Interacting with V1 registries
Version 1.9 adds a flag (`--disable-legacy-registry=false`) which prevents the docker daemon from `pull`, `push`, and `login` operations against v1 registries. Though disabled by default, this signals the intent to deprecate the v1 protocol.
