Old bugs in the man true & man false

I apologise if this has been fixed already but we have an old version of
RedHat.

Both "man true" and "man false" state

"DESCRIPTION
       These option names may not be abbreviated.

       --help display this help and exit

       --version
              output version information and exit"

However both true and false ignore any options provided. They do not
support these options.

Solution: delete their mention from the man pages.
