Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek b2c6cc6a8e userdbctl: actually implement option parsing stop after --chain
The basic idea is that --chain should stop option parsing. But
previously this didn't work, so --chain could be specified anywhere
in the command line. To maintain with compatibility with that,
allow --chain to be specified anywhere until the first positional
arg or option in the command string. This allows options to be passed
in the expected fashion:
  userdbctl --chain ssh-authorized-keys user cmd --opt1 --opt2
  userdbctl --chain ssh-authorized-keys user -- cmd --opt1 --opt2
but also allows the invocations which worked previously:
  userdbctl ssh-authorized-keys user --chain cmd
  userdbctl ssh-authorized-keys user cmd --chain

Fixes 8072a7e6a9.

The error messages are extended a bit. "binary path" is misleading:
we support all kinds of executables, not only compiled programs.
