Commit 6d32717 "aio / timers: Remove alarm timers" has issues:
1. It silently ignores -clock for backward compatibility.
Incompatible change: -clock help no longer terminates the program.
Tolerable.
2. Failed to update option documentation. In particular, -help still
advises users to try -clock help for available timers. Drop all
documentation on -clock.
3. The 'query-alarm-clock' example in docs/writing-commands.txt no
longer works, and needs to be redone. Can't do that right now, so I
just stick in a FIXME.

error_is_set(&var) is the same as var != NULL, but it takes
whole-program analysis to figure that out. Unnecessarily hard for
optimizers, static checkers, and human readers. Commit 84d18f0 dumbed
it down to obvious, but a few more have crept in since, and
documentation was overlooked. Dumb these down, too.

Add information about the new error format and improve the text a bit.
