ui/console: Note in '-display help' that some backends support suboptions
Currently '-display help' only prints the available backends. Some
of those backends support suboptions (e.g. '-display gtk,gl=on').
Mention that in the help output, and point the user to where they
might be able to find more information about the suboptions.
The new output looks like this:
$ qemu-system-aarch64 -display help
Available display backend types:
none
gtk
sdl
egl-headless
curses
spice-app
dbus
Some display backends support suboptions, which can be set with
-display backend,option=value,option=value...
For a short list of the suboptions for each display, see the top-level -help output; more detail is in the documentation.
