Summary

This commit slightly changes the format of the "Usage" strings in CLI
-help messages to meet the expection of the help2man tool, which we
use to generate man pages. On the way, we remove a few calls to
strprintf(), which became superficial after commit 32fbfda.

This is a backport of Core PR13872

Test Plan
make check
BUILDDIR=~/bitcoin-abc/build ../contrib/devtools/gen-manpages.sh

Make sure the new generated manpages do make sense.
