86b5fcf410 Clarify behavior of docker cp
The STDOUT behavior of cp is not yet released in 1.50 so removed.
Also, tested against 1.5 all other behaviors and extended documentation to match.
Renamed HOSTPATH to HOSTDIR to give a self documenting name.

Adding back in the references to STDOUT
fix the command string

f82eddabc6 --help option and help command should print to stdout not stderr
--help and help are successful commands so output should not go to error.

    QE teams have requested this change, also users doing docker help | less
    or docker run --help | less would expect this to work.

    Usage statement should only be printed when the user asks for it.
    Errors should print error message and then suggest the docker COMMAND --help
    command to see usage information.

    The current behaviour causes the user to have to search for the error message
    and sometimes scrolls right off the screen.  For example a error on a
    "docker run" command is very difficult to diagnose.

    Finally erros should always exit with a non 0 exit code, if the user
    makes a CLI error.
