Change all files in common/ to use CMD_RET_USAGE instead of calling
cmd_usage() directly. I'm not completely sure about this patch since
the code since impact is small (100 byte or so on ARM) and it might
need splitting into smaller patches. But for now here it is.

Most of the files have U_BOOT_CMD on a separate line,
but a few didn't and had the first line on the same line
as U_BOOT_CMD.

This changes these files by adding a line break and a tab

Lots of code use this construct:

	cmd_usage(cmdtp);
	return 1;

Change cmd_usage() let it return 1 - then we can replace all these
ocurrances by

	return cmd_usage(cmdtp);

This fixes a few places with incorrect return code handling, too.

<title>Make sure that argv[] argument pointers are not modified.</title>

The hush shell dynamically allocates (and re-allocates) memory for the
argument strings in the "char *argv[]" argument vector passed to
commands.  Any code that modifies these pointers will cause serious
corruption of the malloc data structures and crash U-Boot, so make
sure the compiler can check that no such modifications are being done
by changing the code into "char * const argv[]".

This modification is the result of debugging a strange crash caused
after adding a new command, which used the following argument
processing code which has been working perfectly fine in all Unix
systems since version 6 - but not so in U-Boot:

int main (int argc, char **argv)
{
	while (--argc &gt; 0 &amp;&amp; **++argv == '-') {
/* ====&gt; */	while (*++*argv) {
			switch (**argv) {
			case 'd':
				debug++;
				break;
			...
			default:
				usage ();
			}
		}
	}
	...
}

The line marked "====&gt;" will corrupt the malloc data structures and
usually cause U-Boot to crash when the next command gets executed by
the shell.  With the modification, the compiler will prevent this with
an
	error: increment of read-only location '*argv'

N.B.: The code above can be trivially rewritten like this:

	while (--argc &gt; 0 &amp;&amp; **++argv == '-') {
		char *arg = *argv;
		while (*++arg) {
			switch (*arg) {
			...

<title>General help message cleanup</title>

Many of the help messages were not really helpful; for example, many
commands that take no arguments would not print a correct synopsis
line, but "No additional help available." which is not exactly wrong,
but not helpful either.

Commit ``Make "usage" messages more helpful.'' changed this
partially. But it also became clear that lots of "Usage" and "Help"
messages (fields "usage" and "help" in struct cmd_tbl_s respective)
were actually redundant.

This patch cleans this up - for example:

Before:
	=&gt; help dtt
	dtt - Digital Thermometer and Thermostat

	Usage:
	dtt         - Read temperature from digital thermometer and thermostat.

After:
	=&gt; help dtt
	dtt - Read temperature from Digital Thermometer and Thermostat

	Usage:
	dtt

Remove command name from all command "usage" fields and update
common/command.c to display "name - usage" instead of
just "usage". Also remove newlines from command usage fields.

When running `strings` on really long strings, the stack tends to get
smashed due to printf().  Switch to puts() instead since we're only passing
the data through.
