cmdline-opts: made the 'Added:' field mandatory
Since "too old" versions are no longer included in the generated man
page, this field is now mandatory so that it won't be forgotten and then
not included in the documentation.

Short: A
Long: user-agent
Arg: <name>
Help: Send User-Agent <name> to server
Protocols: HTTP
Category: important http
Example: -A "Agent 007" $URL
Added: 4.5.1

Specify the User-Agent string to send to the HTTP server. To encode blanks in
the string, surround the string with single quote marks. This header can also
be set with the --header or the --proxy-header options.
If you give an empty argument to --user-agent (""), it will remove the header
completely from the request. If you prefer a blank header, you can set it to a
single space (" ").
If this option is used several times, the last one will be used.
