Add --export option to --detail to use key=value pairs.

udev likes to get information about a device as key=value pairs so it
can create disk/by-id links etc. So add --export flag which causes
the output of --detail to easily parsable.

Hyphens and Other Manpage Typography, 4/4: literal ASCII hyphens.
...
From: Peter Samuelson <peter@p12n.org>
nroff formats "-" as the very short hyphen used for hyphenated terms
and for splitting a word across two lines. When you want a literal
ASCII "-", like for typing on a command line, you're supposed to use
"\-" instead.
Yeah, it sounds pedantic, but it actually makes a difference. With
modern Unicode-capable terminals, "man" actually renders these with
different characters, so if you try to search for "--create" in your
favorite pager, you won't find it unless the nroff source says
"\-\-create". This discrepancy doesn't generally show up with
non-Unicode terminals.
