docs/cmdline: change to .md for cmdline docs
- switch all invidual files documenting command line options into .md,
   as the documentation is now markdown-looking.

 - made the parser treat 4-space indents as quotes

 - switch to building the curl.1 manpage using the "mainpage.idx" file,
   which lists the files to include to generate it, instead of using the
   previous page-footer/headers. Also, those files are now also .md
   ones, using the same format. I gave them underscore prefixes to make
   them sort separately:
   _NAME.md, _SYNOPSIS.md, _DESCRIPTION.md, _URL.md, _GLOBBING.md,
   _VARIABLES.md, _OUTPUT.md, _PROTOCOLS.md, _PROGRESS.md, _VERSION.md,
   _OPTIONS.md, _FILES.md, _ENVIRONMENT.md, _PROXYPREFIX.md,
   _EXITCODES.md, _BUGS.md, _AUTHORS.md, _WWW.md, _SEEALSO.md

 - updated test cases accordingly

Closes #12751

Help: Verify the status of the server cert via OCSP-staple

# `--cert-status`
Tells curl to verify the status of the server certificate by using the
Certificate Status Request (aka. OCSP stapling) TLS extension.
If this option is enabled and the server sends an invalid (e.g. expired)
response, if the response suggests that the server certificate has been
revoked, or no response at all is received, the verification fails.
This is currently only implemented in the OpenSSL and GnuTLS backends.
