There's no benefit to defining this at a distance, and it makes the code harder to read as you've got to scroll up to see the usage that corresponds to the options. In subsequent commits I'll make use of usage_msg_opt(), which will be quite noisy if I have to use the long "cat_file_usage" variable, there's no other command being defined in this file, so let's rename it to just "usage".
