I've been burned a few times by bgpctl having such a long usage.

# bgpctl
missing argument:
valid commands/args:
  reload
  show
  fib
  neighbor
  network
  irrfilter
  log

The problem is when I'm on screens that don't have scroll-back, those 9
lines have scrolled other information off the top, and then I've had to
repeat the operations, or if not possible, been more frustrated.
