ui/console: Note in '-display help' that some backends support suboptions

Browse Source 
Currently '-display help' only prints the available backends. Some
of those backends support suboptions (e.g. '-display gtk,gl=on').
Mention that in the help output, and point the user to where they
might be able to find more information about the suboptions.
The new output looks like this:

  $ qemu-system-aarch64 -display help
  Available display backend types:
  none
  gtk
  sdl
  egl-headless
  curses
  spice-app
  dbus

  Some display backends support suboptions, which can be set with
     -display backend,option=value,option=value...
  For a short list of the suboptions for each display, see the top-level -help output; more detail is in the documentation.
