Clarify error for unrecognized arguments.
Many of the sub-commands under apps/ accept cipher or digest arguments like "-sha256". These are implemented using a catchall flag that runs the result through opt_md() or opt_cipher(). That means any unrecognized flag, including typos, gets sent to those two functions, producing confusing error messages like below: $ ./apps/openssl req -x590 req: Unrecognized digest x590 req: Use -help for summary. This change switches these two functions to say "Unrecognized flag X" instead. The new message deliberately leaves off the "-" from the flag name, because there are some cases where opt_md() and opt_cipher() are passed a flag value instead (for instance, openssl ca -md). I think the new message is generic enough that it can serve both cases with improved clarity.
