cmdline-opts: made the 'Added:' field mandatory
Since "too old" versions are no longer included in the generated man
page, this field is now mandatory so that it won't be forgotten and then
not included in the documentation.

Closes #7786

Help: Referrer URL

Added: 4.0

Sends the "Referrer Page" information to the HTTP server. This can also be set
with the --header flag of course. When used with --location you can append
";auto" to the --referer URL to make curl automatically set the previous URL
when it follows a Location: header. The \&";auto" string can be used alone,
even if you don't set an initial --referer.
If this option is used several times, the last one will be used.
