zkCli: Show usage information on -h / --help

Please don't make people guess, or root around in documentation, for basic
CLI usage information. If the user supplies -h, --help, or invalid CLI
syntax, respond with a basic description of the valid CLI flags, as other
command line software does.

Cheers,

Thanks for the feedback, Andrew. Do you want to create a jira and report it there? It would be even better if you could propose a patch to do it the way you find best.
