bpftool: Return an error on prog dumps if both CFG and JSON are required
We do not support JSON output for control flow graphs of programs with
bpftool. So far, requiring both the CFG and JSON output would result in
producing a null JSON object. It makes more sense to raise an error
directly when parsing command line arguments and options, so that users
know they won't get any output they might expect.
If JSON is required for the graph, we leave it to Graphviz instead:
# bpftool prog dump xlated <REF> visual | dot -Tjson
