We already detect invalid input to these functions, but we
simply exit with an error code, never saying anything as
simple as "your input was wrong". Let's fix that.

Before:

$ git diff -CM
$ echo $?
128

After:

$ git diff -CM
error: invalid argument to -C: M
$ echo $?
128

There should be no problems with having diff_opt_parse print
to stderr, as there is already precedent in complaining
about bogus --color and --output arguments.
