doc: man: Generate labgrid-client manpage using autoprogram
The old process was to manually duplicate information between the argparse struct in labgrid/remote/client.py and man/labgrid-client.rst which would then be translated to a manpage in man/labgrid-client.1 using rst2man and also tracked in version control. The man/labgrid-client.rst file was also sourced in doc/man/client.rst for sphinx to build html documentation of the labgrid-client cli documentation. Due to this duplication, labgrid-client command documentation was incomplete and inconsistend with argparse documentation accessible via the -h switch. Use the autoprogram sphinx extension to generate usage info from the argparse struct returned by get_parser() in labgrid/remote/client.py as part of doc/man/client.rst. Move documentation missing from the argparse struct from man/labgrid-client.1 to doc/man/client.rst. Generate both html cli documentation as well as the manpage from that. Future changes in subcommands and arguments of labgrid-client need only be documented in the argparse struct but more expansive documentation that includes markup can be added to the manpage, even to specific subcommands via the rst in doc/man.
