Merge branch 'nd/command-list'

The list of commands with their various attributes were spread
across a few places in the build procedure, but it now is getting a
bit more consolidated to allow more automation.

* nd/command-list:
  completion: allow to customize the completable command list
  completion: add and use --list-cmds=alias
  completion: add and use --list-cmds=nohelpers
  Move declaration for alias.c to alias.h
  completion: reduce completable command list
  completion: let git provide the completable command list
  command-list.txt: documentation and guide line
  help: use command-list.txt for the source of guides
  help: add "-a --verbose" to list all commands with synopsis
  git: support --list-cmds=list-<category>
  completion: implement and use --list-cmds=main,others
  git --list-cmds: collect command list in a string_list
  git.c: convert --list-* to --list-cmds=*
  Remove common-cmds.h
  help: use command-list.h for common command list
  generate-cmds.sh: export all commands to command-list.h
  generate-cmds.sh: factor out synopsis extract code

+# Command classification list
+# ---------------------------
+# All supported commands, builtin or external, must be described in
+# here. This info is used to list commands in various places. Each
+# command is on one line followed by one or more attributes.
+#
+# The first attribute group is mandatory and indicates the command
+# type. This group includes:
+#
+#   mainporcelain
+#   ancillarymanipulators
+#   ancillaryinterrogators
+#   foreignscminterface
+#   plumbingmanipulators
+#   plumbinginterrogators
+#   synchingrepositories
+#   synchelpers
+#   purehelpers
+#
+# The type names are self explanatory. But if you want to see what
+# command belongs to what group to get a better picture, have a look
+# at "git" man page, "GIT COMMANDS" section.
+#
+# Commands of type mainporcelain can also optionally have one of these
+# attributes:
+#
+#   init
+#   worktree
+#   info
+#   history
+#   remote
+#
+# These commands are considered "common" and will show up in "git
+# help" output in groups. Uncommon porcelain commands must not
+# specify any of these attributes.
+#
+# "complete" attribute is used to mark that the command should be
+# completable by git-completion.bash. Note that by default,
+# mainporcelain commands are completable so you don't need this
+# attribute.
+#
+# As part of the Git man page list, the man(5/7) guides are also
+# specified here, which can only have "guide" attribute and nothing
+# else.
