New --exclude-no-read-group option for view#2271

Conversation
samtools view -r (and -R) includes reads that have no read group. Though this is mentioned in the man page it still could be confusing. This commit adds text to the usage to clarify how these options act. In addition a new option -n (--exclude-no-read-group) will omit readings with no read group set. This should address concerns in samtools#2265.
