Bug Description

We're missing the "usage"-style -help in unity8, as well as more clear documentation on the supported command line options.

Those that we should document:
-frameless
-fullscreen
-mousetouch

-testability is there, but discouraged in favor of QT_LOAD_TESTABILITY env.

We might want to document some from Qt (-qmljsdebugger) or Mir (?).
