options: fix --volume option range, add some explanations to manpage
The --volume option accepted values up to 10000, but internally, the
value is always clipped to 0-100 range. What makes this even worse is
that --softvol-max suggests that it extends the range of --volume, which
is not the case. (And passing a volume larger than 100 to --volume
didn't even print a warning.)
