bectl: Improve error message when ZFS root is not found.
When recovering a system that is unbootable due to some problem with the active BE, it is likely you'll be booted from a rescue image running UFS. In this case, bectl needs help finding the zpool root that you want to operate on. In this case, improve the error message to suggest specifying a root, rather than just emitting a generic error message that might imply, to the naive user, that there is a ZFS compatibility issue between the rescue image and the on-disk ZFS pool.
