libremessages:flag: Fix several things (also librexgettext)
- Fix a bug where it panicked if given an odd number of sub-headings. - Document the the ability to include sub-headings. - Fix librexgettext's handling of it. It only worked correctly for times when it was only called once in a program, or when it was only ever called with exactly one flag/description pair (and no headings).
