Changes in directory llvm/docs/CommandGuide:

index.html updated: 1.16 -> 1.17

---
Log message:

Minor cleanups:
 * Mention the --help and --help-hidden options
 * Don't say program when we really mean any old bytecode file
 * Add a link to the man pages
 * Move analyze down in the list, as it's not as important as the rest
