Simon Michael 40620666f8 imp: cli: rename --rules-file to --rules; tweak options help
For brevity, and consistency with --conf.
--rules-file remains supported, as a hidden option.

hledger's main mode now supports the hidden legacy flags,
as the command modes do.

# hledger import
> Import new transactions from one or more data files to the main journal.
> More information: <https://hledger.org/hledger.html#import>.
- Import new transactions from `bank.csv`, using `bank.csv.rules` to convert:
`hledger import {{path/to/bank.csv}}`
- Show what would be imported from these two files, without doing anything:
`hledger import {{path/to/bank1.csv}} {{path/to/bank2.csv}} --dry-run`
- Import new transactions from all CSV files, using the same rules for all:
`hledger import --rules {{common.rules}} *.csv`
- Show conversion errors or results while editing `bank.csv.rules`:
`watchexec -- hledger -f {{path/to/bank.csv}} print`
- Mark `bank.csv`'s current data as seen, as if already imported:
`hledger import --catchup {{path/to/bank.csv}}`
- Mark `bank.csv` as all new, as if not yet imported:
`rm -f .latest.bank.csv`
