This fixes a bug where the error handling code was not matching the intended behaviour described in its comment, and as a result the usage message was not being displayed when an invalid config flag was passed. dcrd was also exiting with code 0 instead of 1.
After fixing this bug the usage message was shown as expected and the exit code was correct, but the config error was being printed twice - once by dcrd itself, and once by the go-flags lib. This was fixed by changing the options passed into go-flags.
