Ease reading of command-line options
This change displays command-line options in grid format. Each parameter is indented with two spaces and then padded to maintain vertical alignment of each description. I think the visual spacing makes the options much easier to read. This is particularly important for people new to Kakoune who use `-help` as a way to become familiar with the program.
