checkpatch: make -f alias --file, add --help, more verbose help message

Impact:
  - More verbose help/usage message.
  - Make the option -f an alias for --file.
  - On -h, --help, and --version display help message and exit(0).
  - With no FILE(s) given, exit(1) with "no input files".
  - On invalid options display help/usage and exit(1).

Based on a patch by Pavel Machek.
