scripts: print usage in argparse-using scripts when a command-line error occurs

For scripts that use Python's standard argparse module to parse
command-line arguments, create a subclass which will show the usage
the usage information when a command-line parsing error occurs. The most
common case would be when the script is run with no arguments; at least
then the user immediately gets to see what arguments they might need to
pass instead of just an error message.
