Short options had all sortss of characters listed, that were clearly copied
from col(1) command getopt_long() invocation. Luckily both -V and -h were
part of the short options, but lets get rid of the unnecessary ones.

changed in include/c.h and applied via sed:
sed -i 's/fprintf.*\(USAGE_MAN_TAIL.*\)/printf(\1/' $(git ls-files -- "*.c")
sed -i 's/print_usage_help_options\(.*\);/printf(USAGE_HELP_OPTIONS\1);/' $(git ls-files -- "*.c")

Consolidate --help and --version descriptions. We are
now able to align them to the other options.
We changed include/c.h. The rest of this patch was
generated by sed, plus manually setting the right
alignment numbers. We do not change anything but
white spaces in the --help output.

This patch is trivial and changes nothing, because
we were always using usage(stdout)
Now all our usage() functions look very similar. If wanted we
could auto-generate another big cosmetical patch to remove all
the useless "FILE *out" constants and use printf and puts
rather than their f* friends. Such patch could be automatically
synchronized with the translation project (newlines!) to not
make the translators sick.

This adds a concise description of a tool to its usage text.
A first form of this patch was proposed by Steven Honeyman
(see http://www.spinics.net/lists/util-linux-ng/msg09994.html).

Translating these text elements should happen only once, which is
more likely when the text macros are used properly.

Unnecessary goto jumps where replaced by a simple function, and
two loops. Long options support help and version, and the two
arguments this command has are now validated with strtoul_or_err.

Only pull in locale.h as needed and move it to the common nls.h.
