Unify the formatting of the --help switch for pacman utils, if it exists.
All of the pacman utils will now output help text using the following
format:
util-name (pacman) v<pacman version>
one line description of util's purpose
Usage: util-name [options]
-b, --bar whatever --bar does
-f, --foo whatever --foo does
-h, --help display this help message

This fixes error messages to display the contents of variables rather
than the variable name by replacing backticks with single quotes (m4
eats backticks). It also removes $"" localization from error messages to
eliminate security holes.
For instance, `rankmirrors nonexistent_file' will now display:
'nonexistent_file' does not exist.
rather than:
$1 does not exist.

m4 has a field day parsing escapes and actually vandalizes this string,
causing the error to look like:
==> ERROR: \PKGBUILD\ not found or is not a file
Avoid all quoting and just match up with how makepkg reports errors (no
quoting at all).
