refactor: use the term unmount instead of dismount (#1478)

Browse Source 
* refactor: use UNMOUNT instead of DISMOUNT in code

This change updates the term DISMOUNT in constants to UNMOUNT.
Other occurrences (e.g. variable names) are left alone for now.

* refactor(ui): use unmount instead of dismount

This change updates the GUI text and replaces dismount with unmount.

* docs: update term dismount -> unmount

* refactor(cmdline): add unmount

This change adds an argument 'unmount' for command line usage, while
trying to deprecate the old disnount argument.
The current dismount argument/flag will still work to not introduce
a breaking change.

* docs: mention that /dismount is deprecated

This change fixes the shorthand version of the argument /unmount
It also adds back the info for /dismount and that it is deprecated.

<p>In Windows, a user who does not have administrator privileges <em>can</em> use VeraCrypt, but only after a system administrator installs VeraCrypt on the system. The reason for that is that VeraCrypt needs a device driver to provide transparent on-the-fly
encryption/decryption, and users without administrator privileges cannot install/start device drivers in Windows.<br>
<br>
After a system administrator installs VeraCrypt on the system, users without administrator privileges will be able to run VeraCrypt, mount/dismount any type of VeraCrypt volume, load/save data from/to it, and create file-hosted VeraCrypt volumes on the system.
After a system administrator installs VeraCrypt on the system, users without administrator privileges will be able to run VeraCrypt, mount/unmount any type of VeraCrypt volume, load/save data from/to it, and create file-hosted VeraCrypt volumes on the system.
However, users without administrator privileges cannot encrypt/format partitions, cannot create NTFS volumes, cannot install/uninstall VeraCrypt, cannot change passwords/keyfiles for VeraCrypt partitions/devices, cannot backup/restore headers of VeraCrypt
partitions/devices, and they cannot run VeraCrypt in &lsquo;portable&rsquo; mode.</p>
