[PATCH v2 12/22] scripts/get_abi.pl: add a validate command

From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab
Date: Thu Jun 20 2019 - 13:24:20 EST


Sometimes, we just want the parser to retrieve all symbols from
ABI, in order to check for parsing errors. So, add a new
"validate" command.

While here, update the man/help pages.
