So I agree that the documentation for -data-disassemble has been allowed to get out of date with all the new features available.  As such, just adding the new field to the list you suggest would be more confusing I think.

So, new patch below, the code changes are the same, but I've attempted to improve the documentation for -data-disassemble, this now includes not only the new field I've added, but all the other fields that were not documented.

I've also filled in the cli 'disassemble' command as being the related cli command as it offers most (all?) of the features that -data-disassemble offers.

I tried to draw inspiration from surrounding documentation, but I suspect this will need a few changes to get right :) All feeback welcome.

Thanks,
Andrew
