Description

Currently, "arv --help" produces output that isn't very helpful.
It should:
  • Show calling syntax for generic REST methods, "arv keep", etc.
  • Link to http://doc.arvados.org/sdk/cli/index.html (the usage content for this page is in the wrong place but that's a separate story)
  • Perform "arv --help" correctly even if token/server configuration is missing
  • Add a separate command like "--help resources" or "--resources" for showing a list of resource types (this requires a valid ARVADOS_API_HOST, but can work without a token if the server permits it).
