The number and breadth of cyclictest's options is huge, and just
exploring them in sequence can get the manpage reader lost.
Put the cyclictest's thread priority options:
--policy=NAME
-p, --prio=PRIO
--priospread
into their own group. Adjust the Synopsis accordingly as well.
Further groupings will be added next.
