Many subcommands have their own verbosity options that are being
superseded by the global options. Update the help text to reflect that
where applicable.

While talking to another btrfs user on IRC today, it became clear that a
major point of confusion in the btrfs send manual is that it's not
telling the user soon enough that send/receive solely operates on
subvolume snapshots instead of the original (read/write) subvolumes.
So, change the first few lines to explicitly mention snapshots instead.
Technically, snapshots are also just subvolumes, but requiring this
level of technical detailed knowledge doesn't help the user who is just
trying out things.

Add new options -q,--quiet to prevent printing messages on stderr, added
--verbose as alternative for -v. Moved 'Mode NO_FILE_DATA enabled'
message to stderr. The default verboisty level is 1 to keep some
backward compatibility.

Both man btrfs-send(8) and usage message don't describe
btrfs-send needs read-only snapshot as its argument.

A few minor benefits:
* editors set highliting according to the extensions
* web access to the git repository (github) renders the .asciidoc
files:
* we can link to them from the wiki
* the files are editable via browser and such editations can be
submitted for merge easily
