14890	guestcontrol examples in manual not compatible with Vbox 5+	Zando		"'execute' and '--wait-exit' are no longer sub-commands of guestcontrol but they are still shown in the manual examples.  VBoxManage guestcontrol 8.31. section of the manual has the following examples both of which use 'execute' and '--wait-exit'.


{{{
VBoxManage --nologo guestcontrol ""My VM"" execute --image ""/bin/ls"" --username foo --passwordfile bar.txt --wait-exit --wait-stdout -- -l /usr
VBoxManage --nologo guestcontrol ""My VM"" execute --image ""c:\\windows\\system32\\ipconfig.exe"" --username foo --passwordfile bar.txt --wait-exit --wait-stdout
}}}


I am trying to migrate my scripts to VirtualBox 5 but having trouble launching a shell script in a linux guest, and these examples are of little help.
