bootchart: ask for --rel when failed to initialize graph start time
We always read system uptime before log start time. So the uptime should be always smaller number, except it includes system suspend time. It seems better to ask for --rel and exit() than try to be smart and try to recovery from this situation or generate huge messy graphs.
