Allow --output and --regex to be used only on the command line #414

Ack 2.12 has been released to only disallow --output and --regex in project .ackrc files. I think they should only be allowed on the command line. I can think of no case when you would want to specify them anywhere else: .ackrc, /etc/ackrc or ACKRC.

This has been done in ack 3. There will be no more relreases of ack 2.
