William Culhane 7c9706de71 grimshot: Fix man page issues
This fixes a few formatting errors in SYNOPSIS, moves the command
options out of SYNOPSIS, swaps the labels on the SYNOPSIS and
DESCRIPTION sections, creates an EXAMPLES section and slightly rewords
parts of the OPTIONS, DESCRIPTION, EXAMPLES, and OUTPUT sections.
