Resolves #2612
Motivated by #5346 this exposes a few more global flags in
cabal --help-- particularly active-repositories, and store-dir, which are both useful. It also hides default-user-config which is a v1-freeze thing that I think never acquired much traction. And while we're at it, documents a bit what the flags that aren't exposed are, to help with future cleanup efforts.
