This description claims that send, messages, chats, and contacts have their own usage documentation, but this PR only adds pages for wacli auth, wacli sync, wacli send text, and wacli send file (and there are no existing wacli messages/chats/contacts pages in the repo). Update the wording to only mention subcommands that actually have tldr pages, or add the missing pages.

Suggested change
> Some subcommands such as `send`, `messages`, `chats`, and `contacts` have their own usage documentation.
> Some subcommands such as `auth`, `sync`, and `send` have their own usage documentation.

See also: wacli messages list`` references a tldr page/command that isn't documented anywhere in this repository. Either add the corresponding page or remove it from See also to avoid sending users to a dead end.
