The `consul agent` command was ignoring extra command line arguments which can lead to confusion when the user has for example forgotten to add a dash in front of an argument or is not using an `=` when setting boolean flags to `true`. `-bootstrap true` is not the same as `-bootstrap=true`, for example. Since all command line flags are known and we don't expect unparsed arguments we can return an error. However, this may make it slightly more difficult in the future if we ever wanted to have these kinds of arguments. Fixes #3397
