Commit Message

When 'bpftool feature' is executed it shows incorrect help string.

test# bpftool feature
Usage: bpftool bpftool probe [COMPONENT] [macros [prefix PREFIX]]
       bpftool bpftool help

       COMPONENT := { kernel | dev NAME }

Instead of fixing the help text by tweaking argv[] indices, this
patch changes the default action to 'probe'. It makes the behavior
consistent with other subcommands, where first subcommand without
extra parameter results in 'show' action.

Oh, thanks! This seems to be the correct thing to do indeed.
