Nick Craig-Wood 4ee6de5c3e docs: add a new page with global flags and link to it from the command docs
In f544234 we removed the global flags from each command as it was
making each page very big and causing 1000s of lines of duplication in
the man page.

This change adds a new flags page with all the global flags on and
links each command page to it.

Fixes #3273

## rclone ncdu
Explore a remote with a text based user interface.
### Synopsis
This displays a text based user interface allowing the navigation of a
remote. It is most useful for answering the question - "What is using
all my disk space?".
<script src="https://asciinema.org/a/157793.js" id="asciicast-157793" async></script>
To make the user interface it first scans the entire remote given and
builds an in memory representation. rclone ncdu can be used during
this scanning phase and you will see it building up the directory
structure as it goes along.
Here are the keys - press '?' to toggle the help on and off
↑,↓ or k,j to Move
→,l to enter
←,h to return
c toggle counts
g toggle graph
n,s,C sort by name,size,count
d delete file/directory
^L refresh screen
? to toggle help on and off
q/ESC/c-C to quit
This an homage to the [ncdu tool](https://dev.yorhel.nl/ncdu) but for
rclone remotes. It is missing lots of features at the moment
but is useful as it stands.
Note that it might take some time to delete big files/folders. The
UI won't respond in the meantime since the deletion is done synchronously.
```
rclone ncdu remote:path [flags]
```
### Options
```
-h, --help help for ncdu
```
See the [global flags page](/flags/) for global options not listed here.
