cmdline/docs: add a required 'multi' keyword for each option
The keyword specifies how option works when specified multiple times:

 - single: the last provided value replaces the earlier ones
 - append: it supports being provided multiple times
 - boolean: on/off values
 - mutex: flag-like option that disable anoter flag

The 'gen.pl' script then outputs the proper and unified language for
each option's multi-use behavior in the generated man page.

The multi: header is requires in each .d file and will cause build error
if missing or set to an unknown value.

Closes #9759

---
Silent or quiet mode. Do not show progress meter or error messages. Makes Curl
mute. It will still output the data you ask for, potentially even to the
terminal/stdout unless you redirect it.
Use --show-error in addition to this option to disable progress meter but
still show error messages.
