getopt is usually good at printing out a nice error message when
commandline options are invalid. It distinguishes between an unknown
option and a known option with a missing arg. It is better to let it
do its job and not use opterr=0 unless we actually want to suppress
messages. So remove opterr=0 in the few places where it wasn't really
useful.
When an error in options is encountered, we should not print a lengthy
help() and overwhelm the user, when we know precisely what is wrong
with the commandline. In addition, since help() prints to stdout, it
should not be used except when requested with -h or --help.
Also, simplify things here and there.

Source code has "files-max" and XML has --max-files.

Among other things this makes sure we always expose a --version command
and show it in the help texts.

Internally we store all time values in usec_t, however parse_usec()
actually was used mostly to parse values in seconds (unless explicit
units were specified to define a different unit). Hence, be clear about
this and name the function about what we pass into it, not what we get
out of it.

since the binaries share much of the same code and we better load only
one binary instead of two from disk at early boot let's merge the three
readahead binaries into one. This also allows us to drop a lot of
duplicated code.
