[PATCHv3 1/2] read-tree: convert unhelpful usage()'s to helpful die()'s

[Stephen Boyd <bebarino@gmail.com>]

Printing the usage message when encountering bad option combinations is
not very helpful. Instead, die with a message which tells the user
exactly what combination is invalid.

Added --prefix and --reset to the second die message.
