help: do not show full help text for command on option errors

Example

  $ hg clone --jump foo bar
  hg clone: option --jump not recognized
  hg clone [OPTION]... SOURCE [DEST]

  make a copy of an existing repository

  options:

   -U --noupdate           the clone will include an empty working copy (only a
                           repository)
   -u --updaterev REV      revision, tag or branch to check out
   -r --rev REV [+]        include the specified changeset
   -b --branch BRANCH [+]  clone only the specified branch
      --pull               use pull protocol to copy metadata
      --uncompressed       use uncompressed transfer (fast over LAN)
   -e --ssh CMD            specify ssh command to use
      --remotecmd CMD      specify hg command to run on the remote side
      --insecure           do not verify server certificate (ignoring
                           web.cacerts config)

  [+] marked option can be specified multiple times

  use "hg help clone" to show the full help text

Motivation for this change

  If the user already has specified the command, he probably already knows
  the command to some extent. Apparently, he has a problem with the options,
  so we show him just the synopsis with the short help and the details about
  the options, with a hint on the last line how to get the full help text.

Why is Mercurial better with this change?

  Experts who just forgot about the details of an option don't get that
  much text thrown at them, while the newbies still get a hint on the last
  line how to get the full help text.
