Preparation for #5607, adding optparse-applicative. Adds makefile rules for generating on disk text files with command help content. I've put these in the doc folder since they're a useful reference when working on the user manual. I've added a workflow, with path checks, that I'll use to confirm that the command help output is not changed by using optparse-applicative for rendering the command help.

I'll squash commits before applying the merge label if this pull request is approved.


  • Patches conform to the coding conventions.
  • Is this a PR that fixes CI? If so, it will need to be backported to older cabal release branches (ask maintainers for directions).
