Sort some of the most inconsistently ordered descriptions of commands
(the group of watchpoint commands, and the `reset' command).

NetBSD has sorted everything alphabetically, but I think we would have
too many commands for that if all commands were actually documented
here, so this commit moves towards alphabetical order in several sections:
- section for pure ddb (non-"show") commands. Now contains the watchpoint
commands and is mostly in "logical" order.
- section for pure ddb "show" commands
- similarly for auxilary commands. Most of these are currently missing
here.

Fix markup.

Document new aliases `b', `t' and `registers'. Document old aliases
`bt', `c', `d', `p', `s', `w' and `where'.

Format the list of commands so that the output looks nicer,
by putting command aliases on the adjacent lines.

Document the debug.debugger_on_panic tunable, for those poor souls
who didn't realize that DDB_UNATTENDED just sets its starting

This change is over 5 years late, and documents the original
semantics of debug.debugger_on_panic, which may have been changed
by the (again undocumented) change in rev 1.44 of kern_shutdown.c.
