[m-rev.] for review: improve declarative debugger user interface

I might have to add a few more expected output diffs after I've bootchecked 
this in a few more grades, but nothing else should change.

For review by anyone.

Estimated hours taken: 7
Branches: main

Improve the declarative debugger interface.

The two main changes are to use the mdb help system and not re-display
the question after the user issues a command which does not answer the 
question.  For example if the user issues an `info' command, then previously 
the question would be redisplayed after the requested information and if the 
question is big then the information would be scrolled off the screen.

browser/declarative_analyser.m:
	Remove extra new line characters when printing info.  These are
	no longer necessary since the question is not redisplayed.

browser/declarative_debugger.m:
	Pass the help system from mdb to the oracle state when 
	initialising the diagnoser.

browser/declarative_oracle.m:
	Pass the help system to the user state when initialising the
	oracle state.

browser/declarative_user.m:
	Add two new fields to the user state: one to keep a reference to
	the help system and one to indicate whether the current question
	should be displayed when getting a user input.

	Allow the user to redisplay the question by issuing a `print' command
	with no arguments.  If the question is not to be displayed the show
	a "dd>" prompt.

	Change the `abort' command to `quit'.  This is more consistent
	with the rest of mdb.

doc/commands:
	Add a script to print all the commands in a section in the
	user guide.

doc/generate_mdb_doc:
	Generate help for the declarative debugger.

doc/mdb_categories:
	Add a category, `decl', for commands that can be executed inside
	the declarative debugger.  Change the `dd' category to mdb_dd,
	because 1) `help dd' used to show help about the `dd' category AND 
	the `dd' command and 2) `dd' is too general a category name now that we
	have a `decl' category.

	Add an item, `decl_debug' to the concepts category.
	
doc/user_guide.texi:
	Document some dd commands which previously weren't documented here.

	Add a short overview of the declarative debugger.  This is
	displayed when the user issues a `help' command from within the
	dd.

	Move the bit about the behaviour when no command is given to
	before the list of commands.  This is necessary so util/info_to_mdb.c
	doesn't include this in the help of the last command in the list.

+ at subsection Overview
+
+The declarative debugger tries to find a bug in your program by asking
+questions about the correctness of calls executed in your program.
+
+Because pure Mercury code does not have any side effects, the declarative
+debugger can make inferences such as ``if a call produces incorrect output
+from correct input, then there must be a bug in the code executed by one of 
+the descendents of the call''.
+
+The declarative debugger is therefore able to automate much of the 
+`detective work' that must be done manually when using the
+procedural debugger.
