d27ebf2eeb Explain that relabeling/chowning of volumes can take along time
Users are surprised when chowning large volumes how long it can take
to relabel of chown the entire directory tree. This PR updates the
documentation to explain this fact to the user.

c9c2f644da markdown-preprocess: cross-reference where opts are used
In each options/foo.md, keep a list of where the option is used.
This will be valuable to anyone making future edits, and to
those reviewing those edits.

This may be a controversial commit, because those crossref lists
are autogenerated as a side effect of the script that reads them.
It definitely violates POLA. And one day, some kind person will
reconcile (e.g.) --label, using it in more man pages, and maybe
forget to git-commit the rewritten file, and CI will fail.

I think this is a tough tradeoff, but worth doing. Without this,
it's much too easy for someone to change an option file in a way
that renders it inapplicable/misleading for some podman commands.

5c9bac141e Man pages: refactor common options: --cpus
Only on podman create and run: the --cpus option on container-clone
and pod-clone can probably be combined, but maybe later. pod-create
has unique wording that can't be combined.

This is a freebie to review: the text in both files was already
identical, and I made no changes to it. hack/markdown-preprocess-review
will agree, and show you no diffs, because there are none worth
seeing.
