Clarify error for unrecognized arguments.

Many of the sub-commands under apps/ accept cipher or digest arguments like
"-sha256". These are implemented using a catchall flag that runs the result
through opt_md() or opt_cipher(). That means any unrecognized flag, including
typos, gets sent to those two functions, producing confusing error messages like
below:

    $ ./apps/openssl req -x590
    req: Unrecognized digest x590
    req: Use -help for summary.

This change switches these two functions to say "Unrecognized flag X" instead.
The new message deliberately leaves off the "-" from the flag name, because
there are some cases where opt_md() and opt_cipher() are passed a flag value
instead (for instance, openssl ca -md). I think the new message is generic
enough that it can serve both cases with improved clarity.

CLA: trivial
