This ports our example testing over to [trycmd](https://docs.rs/) so
we can:
- More thoroughly test our examples
- Provide always-up-to-date example usage
The old way of testing automatically picked up examples. This new way
requires we have a `.md` file that uses the example in some way.
Notes:
- Moved overall example description to the `.md` file
- I added cross-linking between related examples
- `14_groups` had a redundant paragraph (twice talked about "one and
only one"
This is intended to replace the runtime usage parser and is not meant to
be a complete API in of itself, like `clap_app!`. What is in scope is
everything that visually makes sense as in a usage string (see
[docopt](http://docopt.org/) for inspiration). General setting of
attributes is out of scope.
This deviates from both `clap_app` and the runtime usage parser
- `clap_app` supported multiple values but has a bug because we made
`Arg::value_name` non-appending, so we aren't supporting this yet
- We do not yet support optional flags that take a value
- In both, `...` is multiple occurrences and values while its only
multiple occurrences for us
- We explicitly support optional values for flags
- Unlike `clap_app`, our name is optional
- Unlike runtime usage parser, our name syntax is simpler
- Unlike runtime usage parser, our name syntax does not allow modifiers
Its more limited than I would like. Hopefully some people better with
macros can expand the feature set and turn more runtime errors into
compile-time errors.
This is to prepare for deprecating the runtime usage parser (#8).
Since usage parser and yaml are on the way to being deprecated (#8, #9),
doing a rename also seems excessive, so rolling it back.

This reverts commits 24cb8b1..d0abb37 from clap-rs/clap#1840
This is part of #16. clap-rs/clap#1840 wasn't the right call but we
don't have time to make the decision now, so instead of having one
option and changing it in 4.0, this reverts back to clap2 behavior.
This feature is too immature at this stage in the release. See
clap-rs/clap Issue 3020 when bringing this feature back.

Not seeing what this example adds over the other ones. We've already
shown subcommands and shown that `App` has extra behavior for when
definint subcommands.
This better models what users should be doing and makes it so all
comments are more clear. In a prior commit, when a changed an `exit` to
`unwrap`, I disliked the fact that I was mixing an unwrap explanatory
comment in with another comment. This makes them stand apart.
The subcommand examples focus on the various ways of looking up
subcommands except for the main one people should be using. This has
previously caused confusion, see https://github.com/clap-rs/clap/discussions/3000
To keep the examples focused, I only show `ArgMatches::subcommand`. I
figure the examples are not exhaustive and that for the cases when
someone wants to do something more specialized, they can pull up the
API reference.
The comments in these examples say that a `conflicts_with` should
override `required`. This seems to be true one way but not the other,
causing these examples to error out at runtime.
