[lttng-dev] [PATCH lttng-tools] Man: move [SESSION] before options

The previous synopsis for the live mode can cause confusion to users
since it can lead to an error while trying one of the simplest create
command for live session that the synopsis is proposing:

lttng create --live test.

Other synopsis are modified for symmetry.

Fixes #1081
