This PR updates some help strings that are incorrect or ambiguous. These were caught by some old work I was doing on parsing OpenROAD help strings.
clock_tree_synthesis
: a bunch of the switches were missing arguments, making them look like flagsdetailed_route_debug
: putting braces around list items is more consistent with e.g.initialize_floorplan
, and makes it explicit that these items need to be part of a list (rather than 4 separate words)repair_antennas
: thediode_cell
argument is optionalplace_pad
: this one feels the least important since I think most people could infer this, but putting the positional argument makes it extra clear that-mirror
doesn't accept a value "name". I think this is also consistent with how some other help strings are defined.
