Summary

Added the -N flag to enable foreground mode.

It is useful to be able to run rpcbind in foreground mode when
starting from a launcher applications. The existing debug flag
is not sufficient as it enables additional debug messages.

Update man page to document the added flag.

Obtained from: Juniper Networks, Inc.

The more typical flag I think is -d, but that's not available...

Juniper had used -N for years because 3rd party applications often will use -d for a "debug" flag.
