This validates the arguments early, when argparse is parsing the arguments, in
a consistent way.

* It turns out that not all versions of the file command support the -E
option - the version in Ubuntu 14.04 doesn't support it for example.
This option is supposed to force file to return an error if the file
can't be opened - since we can't rely upon it then fall back to
looking at the output instead. (The results of this issue were simply
that we didn't notice if the file was executable and give a warning,
which tripped an oe-selftest failure - so it was minor.)
* If we receive an error there's not much point looking at the output to
see what type was returned because there wasn't one.

Add a long description and tweak some of the argument descriptions so
that it's clearer what the appendfile subcommand does and how it works.

Locating which recipe provides a file in an image that you want to
modify and then figuring out how to bbappend the recipe in order to
replace it can be a tedious process. Thus, add a new appendfile
subcommand to recipetool, providing the ability to create a bbappend
file to add/replace any file in the target system. Without the -r
option, it will search for the recipe packaging the specified file
(using pkgdata from previously built recipes). The bbappend will be
created at the appropriate path within the specified layer directory
(which may or may not be in your bblayers.conf) or if one already exists
it will be updated appropriately.
Fairly extensive oe-selftest tests are also provided.
Implements [YOCTO #6447].
