Merge #11710: cli: Reject arguments to -getinfo

dcfef27 cli: Reject arguments to -getinfo (Wladimir J. van der Laan)

Pull request description:

  Currently it's possible to accidentally type e.g.

      bitcoin-cli -getinfo getbalance

  and get an answer which can be confusing; the trailing arguments are just ignored.

  To avoid this, throw an error if the user provides arguments to
  `-getinfo`.
