Per UX review of help text, this commit makes several changes over the breadth
of the Faces help:
* Preface API-only action summaries/descriptions with "API only." (issue #7775)
* Provide both CLI and API info in "returns," with the CLI info first. (issue #7778)
* Summaries should be sentences. (Add punctuation.)
* First sentences of descriptions should reiterate summaries. (Summaries and
descriptions should be displayed far enough apart that this isn't a problem.)
* Standardize on "subcommand" instead of "face" when talking about the entity
you invoke at the command line. (Use "face" when describing API use.)
* Fix outdated or clunky text in several faces.

This is a rebase of the following commits:
* (#7563) Add a template for manpages
In order to generate manpages in a reasonably maintainable way, we need
to format text from the Faces help API for use with Ronn
(https://github.com/rtomayko/ronn/).
This commit adds a man template to the help templates folder; it has
been verified to generate Ronn-friendly input text. It isn't currently
called by any applications, but can be demonstrated by exchanging it for
face.erb.
* (#7634) Change ERB trim mode used in the Faces help API
<%= something -%> tags (note the minus) are unavoidably necessary at at
least one point in the Faces help templates. ERB objects instantiated
with the % trim mode will blow up horribly whenever one of these tags
appears.
This commit changes the trim mode to `-` and refactors all help
templates accordingly.
* (#7563) Refactor short help templates
This commit attempts to bring the short face and action help templates closer to the goals of fitting cleanly on one screen, fitting the prevailing *nix aesthetic, and being useful without overwhelming the user.
