Better initial help message

See original GitHub issue

Currently cookietemple --help gives an overview of every command.

I quite like the gh help message, which looks like this:

zeth@master ~> gh --help                                                                                                                                                               (base)

Don’t think that we can create fat messages right @Imipenem ? They’re autogenerated from the docstrings…

Hence, I quite like the full caps “headers” actually @filipdutescu

I guess we have to write our custom thing here and then we can start styling it

Thats the way we should go for yes @Zethson
