The getSocket comment that mentioned using ":port"
in the hostname seems to have been incorrect or be out of date.
After all, the bug report came when the user first tried doing that,
and it didn't work.

Sometimes users would get confused because an option they were looking
for was not mentioned on a subcommand's man page, and they had not
noticed that the main git-annex man page had a list of common options.
This change lets each subcommand mention the common options, similarly
to how the matching options are handled.

i found that most man pages only had references to the main git-annex
manpage, which i stillfind pretty huge and hard to navigate through.
i tried to sift through all the man pages and add cross-references
between relevant pages. my general rule of thumb is that links should
be both ways unless one of the pages is a more general page that would
become ridiculously huge if all backlinks would be added
(git-annex-preferred-content comes to mind).
i have also make the links one per line as this is how it was done in
the metadata pages so far.
i did everything but the plumbing, utility and test commands, although
some of those are linked from the other commands so cross-links were
added there as well.
