As of 0.2.222, providing either `-h` or `--help` to the `render` command ends up passing that option to pandoc and then presenting the pandoc help. 

If the document contains Shiny components or other executable code, that code is run before calling pandoc.

For comparison, Git and Go take different approaches to the same problem:

* `git pull -h` - shows usage information and an option summary.
* `git help pull` - shows the full man page for `git pull`, including details for each option.

* `go build -h` - shows usage line and instructions to use `go help build`.
* `go help build` - detailed information about the `go build` command.
