Fix descriptions of credentials and verification options for various apps
fix doc of s_client and s_server credentials and verification options fix doc of verification options also for s_time, x509, crl, req, ts, and verify correcting and extending texts regarding untrusted and trusted certs, making the order of options in the docs and help texts more consistent, etc. Reviewed-by: Dmitry Belyavskiy <beldmit@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Matt Caswell <matt@openssl.org> (Merged from https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/11273)
