Provide a usage() function that takes a struct nvme_function pointer
and produces a usage mssage. Eliminate all now-redundant usage
functions. Propigate the new argument through the program as needed.
Use common routine to print usage.

More commands will be added to nvmecontrol. Also, there will be a few
more vendor commands (some of which may need to remain private to
companies writing them). The first step on that journey is to move to
using linker sets to dispatch commands. The next step will be using
dlopen to bring in the .so's that have the command that might need
to remain private for seamless integration.
Similar changes to this will be needed for vendor specific log pages.

The original NVMe API used bit-fields to represent fields in data
structures defined by the specification (e.g. the op-code in the command
data structure). The implementation targeted x86_64 processors and
defined the bit fields for little endian dwords (i.e. 32 bits).
This approach does not work as-is for big endian architectures and was
changed to use a combination of bit shifts and masks to support PowerPC.
Unfortunately, this changed the NVMe API and forces #ifdef's based on
the OS revision level in user space code.
This change reverts to something that looks like the original API, but
it uses bytes instead of bit-fields inside the packed command structure.
As a bonus, this works as-is for both big and little endian CPU
architectures.

This allows create/delete/attach/detach namespaces on new NVMe controllers.
This is only a first user-level part of the bigger change set. Kernel part
required to detect and handle the configuration changes without reboot is
completely independent and will be added separately.
