prevent app_get_pass() from revealing cleartext password on syntax error



When the argument for '-pass' was badly formed, that argument got
displayed in full.  This turns out to not be such a good idea if the
user simply forgot to start the argument with 'pass:', or spellt the
prefix incorrectly.  We therefore change the display to say that a
colon is missing or only showing the incorrect prefix.
