Nick Craig-Wood bff702a6f1 docs: group the global flags and make them appear on command and flags pages
This adds an additional parameter to the creation of each flag. This
specifies one or more flag groups. This **must** be set for global
flags and **must not** be set for local flags.

This causes flags.md to be built with sections to aid comprehension
and it causes the documentation pages for each command (and the
`--help`) to be built showing the flags groups as specified in the
`groups` annotation on the command.

Short: `Remove the files in path.`,

Long: strings.ReplaceAll(`
Remove the files in path. Unlike [purge](/commands/rclone_purge/) it
obeys include/exclude filters so can be used to selectively delete files.
|rclone delete| only deletes files but leaves the directory structure
alone. If you want to delete a directory and all of its contents use
the [purge](/commands/rclone_purge/) command.
If you supply the |--rmdirs| flag, it will remove all empty directories along with it.
You can also use the separate command [rmdir](/commands/rclone_rmdir/) or
[rmdirs](/commands/rclone_rmdirs/) to delete empty directories only.
For example, to delete all files bigger than 100 MiB, you may first want to
check what would be deleted (use either):
rclone --min-size 100M lsl remote:path
rclone --dry-run --min-size 100M delete remote:path
Then proceed with the actual delete:
rclone --min-size 100M delete remote:path
That reads "delete everything with a minimum size of 100 MiB", hence
delete all files bigger than 100 MiB.
**Important**: Since this can cause data loss, test first with the
|--dry-run| or the |--interactive|/|-i| flag.
