[Bug-tar] [patch] consistent lowercase --help messages

Hi,

The style of some of the lines printed for 'tar --help' appears to 
have changed: they begin with an uppercase letter, instead of a 
lowercase as most of the others.  Attached patch corrects this to a 
consistent lowercase.  It also removes a few periods, and chops up 
some overlong lines.

If however all lines of the help message are intended to begin with 
an uppercase letter, then they apparently are meant to be sentences 
and should all end in a period.  If desired, I can make that patch 
too.

The small secondary patch adds a word that was inserted into similar 
error messages but not this one.

Benno
