[PATCH 2/6] help: correct usage string for "git help --guides"

[Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@xxxxxxxxx>]

As noted in 65f98358c0c (builtin/help.c: add --guide option,
2013-04-02) and a133737b809 (doc: include --guide option description
for "git help", 2013-04-02) which introduced the --guide option it
cannot be combined with e.g. <command>.

Change both the usage string to reflect that, and test and assert for
this behavior in the command itself. Now that we assert this in code
we don't need to exhaustively describe the previous confusing behavior
in the documentation either, instead of silently ignoring the provided
argument we'll now error out.

The comment being removed was added in 15f7d494380 (builtin/help.c:
split "-a" processing into two, 2013-04-02) and is no longer
applicable as explained above.
