Man pages: refactor common options: --restart

Only applicable to podman-create and -run. I went with the -run
version because it is cleaner and more recently updated.

+#### **--restart**=*policy*
+
+Restart policy to follow when containers exit.
+Restart policy will not take effect if a container is stopped via the **podman kill** or **podman stop** commands.
+
+Valid _policy_ values are:
+
+- `no`                       : Do not restart containers on exit
+- `on-failure[:max_retries]` : Restart containers when they exit with a non-zero exit code, retrying indefinitely or until the optional *max_retries* count is hit
+- `always`                   : Restart containers when they exit, regardless of status, retrying indefinitely
+- `unless-stopped`           : Identical to **always**
+
+Please note that restart will not restart containers after a system reboot.
+If this functionality is required in your environment, you can invoke Podman from a **systemd.unit**(5) file, or create an init script for whichever init system is in use.
+To generate systemd unit files, please see **podman generate systemd**.
