Add an option -h to display the help of the tools. This is a common
practice so users may expect it to work.
Based on a preliminary patch from David Kerns.

Now that i2cget supports I2C block read, adding support for SMBus
block read is trivial. This restores the symmetry between i2cset and
i2cget, and paves the road for the removal of SMBus block read
support from i2cdump.

Mention I2C block read support in the i2cget(8) manual page, together
with an example.

For all manpages installed on my Debian system, add a BUGS section, so
people can easily find whom to contact.

The I2C standard reserves addresses 0x03-0x07. Adapt our tools to that.

If the user is sure that the reserved 0x00 - 0x02 and 0x77 - 0x7f ranges
are not needed by its devices, then the "-a" option can be passed for
allowing all theorical addresses to be used. It is then possible to
access devices in this address range.

there is no guarantee that i2c bus numbering will stay the same over
time (for example if hardware is added of removed, or simply due to
loading the drivers in a different order), passing the i2c bus by name
is more robust.
The i2c bus names are supposed to be unique. If you request a bus by
name and this name happens to not be unique, then the tools will play
it safe and quit. This is better than writing to the wrong device.
