Manpage: various updates
...
Document the --archive-name option, and explain the basic idea of deriving the
archive filename from the mailbox earlier and more prominently. Also document
how archivemail tries not to create hidden archive files, and remove some
obsolete notes.

New option --archive-prefix, alias -p
...
Technically, this works just like the --suffix option. This commit also
updates the manpage accordingly.
Currently, the prefix is not checked for slashes, so it could contain path
components. (The same applies for the suffix, btw). Since the expanded
string is prepended to the archive base name, this can be used to dynamically
configure the archive directory, depending on the archive cutoff date. I'm
not sure if this can be considered a reasonable feature, though.
