Improve the error message produced by `seq` when given invalid format
specifiers for the `-f` option. Before this commit:
$ seq -f "%" 1
seq: %: invalid conversion specification
$ seq -f "%g%" 1
seq: %: invalid conversion specification
After this commit:
$ seq -f "%" 1
seq: format '%' ends in %
$ seq -f "%g%" 1
seq: format '%g%' has too many % directives
This matches the behavior of GNU `seq`.
