man: Document the cli inteface a little.
This just documents the cli interface syntax. Mostly a lift from http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/PulseAudio/Documentation/User/CLI with some minor editing and bringing up to date. Also document a few undocumented commands. Shuffle around the order in 'pacmd help' output to match the order in the new docs for consistency. https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=45029
