Since cd57bc41bb (builtin/multi-pack-index.c: display usage on unrecognized command, 2021-03-30) we have used a "usage" label to avoid having two separate callers of usage_with_options (one when no arguments are given, and another for unrecognized sub-commands). But the first caller has been broken since cd57bc41bb, since it will happily jump to usage without arguments, and then pass argv[0] to the "unrecognized subcommand" error. Many compilers will save us from a segfault here, but the end result is ugly, since it mentions an unrecognized subcommand when we didn't even pass one, and (on GCC) includes "(null)" in its output. Move the "usage" label down past the error about unrecognized subcommands so that it is only triggered when it should be. While we're at it, bulk up our test coverage in this area, too.
