Document examples of copying, and include the --format=id feature #329

We could use more elaboration and examples around the copy functionality.

Also, I think the new --format=id will be very helpful for that. Example

tower-cli inventory copy $(tower-cli inventory get --name="Alan AWS" --format=id)

A page inside of the docs for copying, in general, would be nice.

I totally agree. Would be great to get more documentation on this. Additionally, and as a result of perhaps lack of documentation, I noticed the copy command ignores the override of the name (it still just adds the timestamp). I will log an issue for this.
