Make the behavior of the -v option more closer to GNU linkers.

Previously, lld exited with an error status if the only option given to
the command was -v. GNU linkers gracefully exit in that case. This patch
makes lld behave like GNU.

Note that even with this patch, lld's -v and --version options behave
slightly differently than GNU linkers' counterparts. For example,
if you run `ld.bfd -v -v`, the version string is printed out twice.
But that is an edge case that I don't think we need to take care of.
