refactor command registration

Refactors the command registration to use helpers to simplify the code.
The unregistration routines were made more flexible by allowing them
to operate on a single command, such that one can remove all of a
commands children in one step (perhaps before adding back a 'config'
subcommand that allows getting the others back).  Eliminates a bit
of duplicated code and adds full API documentation for these routines.
