chore: Fix minor grammar nit in command-line help #13602

This change fixes a very minor grammar mistake. "Require" used in this way is
typically followed by the infinitive. In addition, since "up-to-date" is used
an adjective now it should be hyphenated.

See https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/up-to-date

Testing

I have run cargo test with CFG_DISABLE_CROSS_TESTS=1 as well as cargo build-man to regenerate the man pages.

Fixes #13601.

“Require” should be in singular form, as it agrees with “Either,” which is a singular subject, no?

Sorry, you're correct. I've updated the PR with this fix.

A *very* minor grammar correction. "Require" used in this way is
typically followed by the infinitive.
