ExternalProject: Use explicit markup and definition lists in docs

Convert ExternalProject module documentation to use explicit markup
blocks for each command.  Enumerate command options with definition
lists instead of a literal block.  This will allow more detail to be
added later.  Also fix the logic that parses options out of the
documentation to be aware of the new layout.
