subcmds: force consistent help text format

We're inconsistent with help text as to whether it uses title case and
whether it ends in a period.  Add a test to enforce a standard, and use
the style that Python optparse & argparse use themselves (e.g. with the
--help option): always lowercase, and never trailing period.
