This PR improves the help system for Azure Functions Core Tools to provide a cleaner, more organized user experience while ensuring no breaking changes to existing functionality. All changes are isolated to help display logic - no breaking changes to core functionality. Commands like func host start and func function new continue to work exactly as before; they're simply hidden from the main help list to reduce clutter while keeping commonly-used contexts visible.
