For the shell verb we want switches specified after the program name to
be passed to the program to execute, not processed by us. Mirror the
approach in 'userdbctl ssh-authorized-keys': start with
OPTION_PARSER_RETURN_POSITIONAL_ARGS, then lates switch to
STOP_AT_FIRST_NONOPTION for "shell" or NORMAL otherwise.
VERB declarations are placed directly above each function; functions
that dispatch multiple verb names get stacked VERB() declarations.
chainload_importctl() now takes the args strv instead of relying on the
global optind.
--help output is mostly the same.
--no-pager/--no-legend/--no-ask-password/-q/--quiet are now at the end.
bind-volume/unbind-volume are documented.
Fixes c9f461a806.
