[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.
```
