1. UsageText shows the command usage rule. Fixed/added where needed.
2. Description shows the command description, huh. It is shown right after
UsageText, so there's no need to repeat the command usage rule. If
Description contains Example, then it should be printed on a new line.
Usage message is shown on common --help command, thus it should be meaningful
and short. If user needs more detailed command description, then he can use
command-specific help.
As a result, current VM help looks pretty simple:
```

env Dump state of the chain that is used for VM CLI invocations (use -v for verbose node configuration)
storage Dump storage of the contract with the specified hash, address or ID as is at the current stage of script invocation
changes Dump storage changes as is at the current stage of loaded script invocation
help, h Shows a list of commands or help for one command
GLOBAL OPTIONS:
--help, -h show help
--version, -v print the version
```
Share parameters parsing code between 'contract invokefunction' and
'vm run' commands. It allows VM CLI to parse more complicated parameter
types including arrays and file-backed bytestrings.
The tests are still there, coverage should counted fine, but it improves things:

Still a nice thing to have.
Make NEP-11 code use getnep11balances the same way NEP-17 code uses
getnep17balances. This command was introduced well before getnep11balances
appeared, so it required always specifying contract explicitly. Now this
constraint can be relaxed somewhat in most cases.
1. In the single token mode compare known hashes instead of names, names can
be misleading.
2. Hardcode NEO/GAS, they are special (if not overrided by the wallet data).
We have this data available since 0.99.1 while all public networks require at
least 0.99.2 for compatibility and NeoFS setups use 0.99.2+ too. This data can
simplify account handling considerably making additional requests unneccessary
in many cases.
In the same way we do for NEP-17 tokens. This code predates "getnep11balances"
call, so this wasn't possible back then, but now we can improve the situation
(allow specifying names/symbols instead of hashes only).
Unfortunately Go doesn't allow to easily reuse readers in full packages, still
we can have this wrapper with a little overhead (the alternative is to move
specific methods into types of their own, but I'm not sure how it's going to
be accepted user-side).
Notice that int64 types are used for gas per block or registration price
because the price has to fit into the system fee limitation and gas per block
value can't be more than 10 GAS. We use int64 for votes as well in other types
since NEO is limited to 100M.
See neo-project/neo#2390. Can't see it there? No wonder, that's why we have
this bug for a year and a half. Not critical, we don't care about versions,
but _very_ annoying.
Saving into a file can't be successful without signAndPush flag (wallet
present). This situation can't happen in CLI invocations since
testinvokefunction doesn't have `--out` flag, but still it's a logic
error. Everything else can be simplified a bit taking that into account.
Some commands don't accept arguments, but users try giving them and don't
notice a mistake. It's a bit more user-friendly to tell the user that there is
something wrong with the way he tries to use the command.
It has a stub for SIGHUP, but doesn't have anything for USR1 and USR2:
Error: cli\server\server.go:520:31: undefined: syscall.SIGUSR1
Error: cli\server\server.go:521:31: undefined: syscall.SIGUSR2
Error: cli\server\server.go:565:17: undefined: syscall.SIGUSR1
Error: cli\server\server.go:608:17: undefined: syscall.SIGUSR2
Which allows to enable/disable the service, change nodes, keys and other
settings. Unfortunately, atomic.Value doesn't allow Store(nil), so we have to
store a pointer there that can point to nil interface.
