Various sub-commands to btrfs claim --help is an unrecognized option if there are any other options on the CLI.

Examples of --help being unrecognized.

btrfs filesystem defragment -v --help
btrfs filesystem defragment: unrecognized option '--help'
Try 'btrfs filesystem defragment --help' for more information
btrfs balance start -v --help
btrfs balabtrfs balance start -v --help
btrfs balance start: unrecognized option '--help'
Try 'btrfs balance start --help' for more information

Alternatively, some sub-commands support --help even if there are extra options on the CLI:

btrfs filesystem df -v --help
usage: btrfs filesystem df [options] <path>

    Show space usage information for a mount point

It seems to also depend on the order, because btrfs fi defrat --help -v works

handle_help_options_next_level() checks only the first argument if it's --help.
