Man page update for jcmd.
Add updates for the filename options/arguments affected by:
8334492: DiagnosticCommands (jcmd) should accept %p in output filenames and substitute PID
Also:
In the initial "command" summary, remove the text about "If the pid is 0.." as it is completely duplicated very shortly afterwards in the COMMANDS FOR JCMD section.
In Description:
Each diagnostic command has its own set of options and arguments .
 
Added "options and" because arguments and options are different and this can still be confusing.  Mentioning them as being different may help.
Similarly, added a short section describing that jcmds "may take options and arguments" and further spelling out that options are name=value and arguments are not, as this can still be confusing.
