subcmds: stop instantiating at import time

The current subcmds design has singletons in all_commands.  This isn't
exactly unusual, but the fact that our main & help subcommand will then
attach members to the classes before invoking them is.  This makes it
hard to keep track of what members a command has access to, and the two
code paths (main & help) attach different members depending on what APIs
they then invoke.

Lets pull this back a step by storing classes in all_commands and leave
the instantiation step to when they're used.  This doesn't fully clean
up the confusion, but gets us closer.
