I think we may need to modify vshCmddefHelp() in vsh.c to really make it
look like as expected. For example, in some case, the SYNOPSIS part also
displayed incorrectly.

SYNOPSIS
 domxml-to-native <format> <xml> <domain> 


Instead, the following is similar to what we want:

SYNOPSIS-
 domxml-to-native <format> { [--xml] <xml> | --domain <domain> }

Current implementation of vshCmddefHelp() does not handle this
"complicated" logic. The question is whether we want to modify it or
whether we want to spend the effort modifying it?
