Rollup merge of #128961 - GKFX:issue-128930-explain-missing-option, r=jieyouxu
Fix #128930: Print documentation of CLI options missing their arg

Fix #128930. Failing to give an argument to CLI options which require it now prints something like:
```
$ rustc --print
error: Argument to option 'print' missing
       Usage:
           --print [crate-name|file-names|sysroot|target-libdir|cfg|check-cfg|calling-conventions|target-list|target-cpus|target-features|relocation-models|code-models|tls-models|target-spec-json|all-target-specs-json|native-static-libs|stack-protector-strategies|link-args|deployment-target]
                               Compiler information to print on stdout
```

The driver crate is effectively the "main" function for the rust compiler. It orchestrates the compilation process and "knits together" the code from the other crates within rustc. This crate itself does not contain any of the "main logic" of the compiler (though it does have some code related to pretty printing or other minor compiler options).

For more information about how the driver works, see the rustc dev guide.
