Issue Description:

The help for the command line "swift package init" command does not explain the --type option. I have to always go to the online docs on GitHub to remember I can use --type executable. At least --type is not explained in an easy to find place.

@neonichu, As attached - it looks like `-help` will give information about the `–type` option but I'm guessing this ticket just wants even more clear prose here? Is that correct?

I am not sure if Arjun has made a PR for this ... however I have a fix that is being built and which I will test

Did this ever get merged?

(I'm checking in on all the StarterBugs that haven't been touched in over a month; it's totally fine if it's still in progress.)

Last time I checked it had not been merged; I had left it with Arjun on Boris's suggestion as Arjun had had it initially.  I still have the fix I developed on the day, so I am happy to double-check and then submit if I get the "go ahead".

Sorry, was out of the country for a little bit there.

@aciidb0mb3r, Greenaway (JIRA User) - A PR up here (#2142 but @aciidb0mb3r wanted a modification at the parser level to ensure it is properly formatted regardless of terminal size. Might not be able to get around to this that quickly to be honest.
