doc: clarify --help output for some optional arguments
* src/pr.c (usage): Fix the -S description to indicate that the argument is optional for the short option. * doc/coreutils.texi (pr invocation): Likewise. * src/od.c (usage): Fix the -S description to indicate that the argument is required for the short option. Clarify -w takes an argument and that it is optional.
