Improve "backtrace" help text
This improves help text in stack.c in two ways. First, it removes
trailing newlines from various help strings. I think these are never
needed. Second, it adds a "Usage" line to the "backtrace" text, as
suggested by Pedro.

* stack.c (_initialize_stack): Remove trailing newlines from help
text. Add "Usage" line to "backtrace" help.
