Title:
  "nova-manage flavor create" produces the wrong help

Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  $ nova-manage flavor create
  Creates instance types / flavors.
  usage: nova-manage [-h] [--version] [--debug] [--nodebug] [--verbose]
                     [--noverbose] [--use-syslog] [--nouse-syslog]
                     [--config-file PATH] [--log-config PATH]
                     [--log-format FORMAT] [--log-date-format DATE_FORMAT]
                     [--log-file PATH] [--log-dir LOG_DIR]
                     [--syslog-log-facility SYSLOG_LOG_FACILITY]
                     [--config-dir DIR]
                     
                     {version,bash-completion,project,account,shell,logs,service,db,vm,agent,cell,instance_type,host,flavor,fixed,vpn,floating,network}
                     ...

  optional arguments:
    -h, --help            show this help message and exit
    --version             show program's version number and exit
    --debug, -d           Print debugging output (set logging level to DEBUG
                          instead of default WARNING level).
    --nodebug             The inverse of --debug
    --verbose, -v         Print more verbose output (set logging level to INFO
                          instead of default WARNING level).
    --noverbose           The inverse of --verbose
    --use-syslog          Use syslog for logging.
    --nouse-syslog        The inverse of --use-syslog
    --config-file PATH    Path to a config file to use. Multiple config files
                          can be specified, with values in later files taking
                          precedence. The default files used are:
                          ['/etc/nova/nova.conf']
    --log-config PATH     If this option is specified, the logging configuration
                          file specified is used and overrides any other logging
                          options specified. Please see the Python logging
                          module documentation for details on logging
                          configuration files.
    --log-format FORMAT   A logging.Formatter log message format string which
                          may use any of the available logging.LogRecord
                          attributes. This option is deprecated. Please use
                          logging_context_format_string and
                          logging_default_format_string instead.
    --log-date-format DATE_FORMAT
                          Format string for %(asctime)s in log records. Default:
                          None
    --log-file PATH, --logfile PATH
                          (Optional) Name of log file to output to. If no
                          default is set, logging will go to stdout.
    --log-dir LOG_DIR, --logdir LOG_DIR
                          (Optional) The base directory used for relative --log-
                          file paths
    --syslog-log-facility SYSLOG_LOG_FACILITY
                          syslog facility to receive log lines
    --config-dir DIR      Path to a config directory to pull *.conf files from.
                          This file set is sorted, so as to provide a
                          predictable parse order if individual options are
                          over-ridden. The set is parsed after the file(s), if
                          any, specified via --config-file, hence over-ridden
                          options in the directory take precedence.

  Command categories:
    {version,bash-completion,project,account,shell,logs,service,db,vm,agent,cell,instance_type,host,flavor,fixed,vpn,floating,network}

  This does not help me much. I need the help for 'flavor create', like
  when I do --help:

  $ nova-manage flavor create --help
  usage: nova-manage flavor create [-h] [--name <name>] [--memory <memory size>]
                                   [--cpu <num cores>] [--root_gb <root_gb>]
                                   [--ephemeral_gb <ephemeral_gb>]
                                   [--flavor <flavor  id>] [--swap <swap>]
                                   [--rxtx_factor <rxtx_factor>]
                                   [--is_public <is_public>]
                                   [action_args [action_args ...]]

  positional arguments:
    action_args

  optional arguments:
    -h, --help            show this help message and exit
    --name <name>         Name of instance type/flavor
    --memory <memory size>
                          Memory size
    --cpu <num cores>     Number cpus
    --root_gb <root_gb>   Root disk size
    --ephemeral_gb <ephemeral_gb>
                          Ephemeral disk size
    --flavor <flavor  id>
                          Flavor ID
    --swap <swap>         Swap
    --rxtx_factor <rxtx_factor>
                          rxtx_factor
    --is_public <is_public>
                          Make flavor accessible to the public
