parse-options: add show_usage_with_options_if_asked()
Many commands call usage_with_options() when they are asked to give the help message, but it sends the help text to the standard error stream. When the user asked for it with "git cmd -h", the help message is the primary output from the command, hence we should send it to the standard output stream, instead. Introduce a helper function that captures the common pattern if (argc == 2 && !strcmp(argv[1], "-h")) usage_with_options(usage, options); and replaces it with show_usage_with_options_if_asked(argc, argv, usage, options); to help correct code paths. Note that this helper function still exits with status 129, and t0012 insists on it. After converting all the mistaken callers of usage_with_options() to call this new helper, we may want to address it---the end user is asking us to give the help text, and we are doing exactly as asked, so there is no reason to exit with non-zero status.
