commands: use AUTOTYPE in definitions

If a cmd def implies an LV type without --type
in the required options, then include the implied
type in the cmd def as AUTOTYPE: <type>
instead of including the redundant --type foo
in the OO list of options.

Including an implied --type in the OO list would
often cause multiple cmd defs to potentially be
identical when options were used, and a user
command could match more than one cmd def.

The AUTOTYPE values are listed in man page and
help output as
 [ --type foo (implied) ]

If a user command includes --type, it will usually
match a cmd def with --type in the required options.
But, if the user command matches a cmd def with
AUTOTYPE, then the specifed --type and AUTOTYPE must
match.

The man-generator program has a new --check
option that compares cmd defs to find any cmd defs
that are equivalent with the use of options,
and should have their options adjusted.
