Misleading instructions on how to get help via cargo help #1421

@felixc

Description

@felixc

Running cargo help prints a message ending with "See 'cargo help ' for more information on a specific command". However, running cargo help <command> just prints "Help command should not be executed directly". The correct syntax appears to be cargo <command> --help.

Not sure if the documentation is wrong, or if the suggested syntax is supposed to work.
