Reviewers

This centralizes the custom help formatter and --version handling from
rb-site into a new reviewboard.cmdline.utils.argparsing module,
allowing reuse by other programs.

The help formatter provides terminal-bound wrapping while also
preserving paragraphs, unlike the default formatter which can do only
one or the other.

The --version action lists the version for the program + Review Board,
the Python version, and the install path for Review Board.

Ran rb-site --version and rb-site --help. Saw the correct output.
