Hi,

Using argv[0] in the usage string makes it harder to layout the usage message:
...
$ ./build/dwz -?
Usage:
  ./build/dwz [common options] [-h] [-m COMMONFILE] [-M NAME | -r] [FILES]
  ./build/dwz [common options] -o OUTFILE FILE
  ./build/dwz [ -v | -? ]
...

Instead, just use "dwz".

Committed to trunk.

Thanks,
- Tom

	* args.c (usage): Drop progname argument.
	(parse_args): Update call to usage.
