Issue body
Currently (snapcraft 212) the help output for snapcraft includes the following line under 'Parts ecosystem commands':
search Searches the remotes part cache for matching parts.
'remotes' should be 'remote'.
Additionally, some headings end in colons:
* The available commands are:
* The available lifecycle commands are:
but the final one does not:
* Parts ecosystem commands
I think all the headings should end with a ':'
