Add -help [options|tests|all] and remove tests from default usage message
Previously, the error message when giving a bad option was over 350 lines
long. This moves the list of tests out into the `-help tests` option and
makes the usage error message a much more reasonable 32 lines long.
(Also accepts but does not document --help.)
