[CommandLine] Error message for incorrect PositionalEatArgs usage
Summary: bugpoint has several options specified as `PositionalEatArgs` to pass options through to the underlying tool, e.g. `-tool-args`. The `-help` message suggests the usage is: `-tool-args=<string>`. However, this is misleading, because that's not how these arguments work. Rather than taking a value, the option consumes all positional arguments until the next recognized option (or all arguments if `--` is specified at some point). To make this slightly clearer, instead print the help as: ``` -tool-args <string>... - <tool arguments>... ``` Additionally, add an error if the user attempts to use a `PositionalEatArgs` argument with a value, instead of silently ignoring it. Example: ``` ./bin/bugpoint -tool-args=-mpcu=skylake-avx512 bugpoint: for the -tool-args option: This argument does not take a value. Instead, it consumes any positional arguments until the next recognized option. ``` Reviewed By: aprantl Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D46787 llvm-svn: 332311
