[PATCH 1/2] merge-base: use OPT_CMDMODE and clarify the command line parsing

From
Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

The --octopus, --independent and --is-ancestor are mutually exclusive command modes (in addition to not giving any of these options), so represent them as such using the recent OPT_CMDMODE facility available since 11588263 (parse-options: add OPT_CMDMODE(), 2013-07-30), which is in v1.8.4-82-g366b80b. --all is compatible only with plain vanilla mode and --octopus mode, and the minimum number of arguments the command takes depends on the command modes, so these are now separately checked in each command mode.
