improve error message on bad cli argument (#371)
currently the error messages have the shortopt hardcoded in them, even when the user actually entered a longopt: $ ./nsxiv --framerate v nsxiv: Invalid argument for option -A: v and as far as I see, there's no way to *reliably* tell weather we're processing a longopt or a shortopt. perhaps we can do some shenanigangs with `optind` but that seems finicky at best. and it seems like other coreutils which support longopt has similar issues: $ xargs --max-procs=z xargs: invalid number "z" for -P option utils like `grep` and `head` seems to work-around it by not mentioning the flag: $ head --lines=z head: invalid number of lines: ‘z’ $ grep --max-count=l grep: invalid max count this patch does the same thing as `grep/head` and omits the flag from the error message.
