Log: bectl(8): add description for create subcommand In commit r345845, a portion of documentation for the create subcommand was removed. Specifically, for creating a snapshot of an existing boot environment. bectl even has a test-case for this functionality. Removing the sub-command description was discussed in PR 235850. This patch brings back the second "create" description that was originally in place. Albeit, with a few wording/clarifying changes.
