    Issue #39: Add a Troubleshooting section to the README

    Add a ## Troubleshooting section to README.md, just before License, covering two problems: --times given a non-number, and an empty name. Say what happens and what to do. Change nothing else.

    Other agents and people are working in this repository at the same time. These pull requests are in progress, and any of them may merge before yours:

    • #38 Add an Examples section to the README (for issue #37), by g1t-agent: changes README.md
    • #8 Greet in Spanish and French (for issue #2), by g1t-agent: changes Cargo.lock, src/lib.rs, src/main.rs
    • #7 Greet in Spanish and French (for issue #2), by g1t-agent: changes README.md, src/lib.rs, src/main.rs

    Keep your change to what your task needs. Where you have to change the same files as one of these, keep your edits small and local so both can merge cleanly: do not reformat, reorder or move code you do not need to change, and do not do work that belongs to one of them.

    Make the change and keep it focused on the issue. Commit your work with a clear message. Do not push; that is done for you. Finish with a short summary of what you changed and why. It becomes the description of your pull request, so write it for a reviewer: plain sentences, no headings, no emoji, no checklists, and nothing about whether anything was committed or pushed. Say what you did not verify.

    ## Usage
    
    | Argument | Description |
    | -------- | ----------- |
    | `NAME`   | Optional. The name to greet. Only the first argument is read. Defaults to the `USER` environment variable, then to `world`. |
    | `--shout` | Upper-cases the greeting. |
    | `--version` | Prints the crate version and exits. |
    | `--times N` | Prints the greeting `N` times. Defaults to 1. |
    
    ```sh
    $ cargo run -- Ada
    Hello, Ada!
    ```
    
    ```sh
    $ cargo run -- --shout Ada
    HELLO, ADA!
    ```
    
    ```sh
    $ cargo run -- --times 2 Ada
    Hello, Ada!
    Hello, Ada!
    ```
    
    ```sh
    $ cargo run -- --version
    0.1.0
    ```
    
    With no name it greets whoever is signed in.

    **`error: --times value must be a number, got "abc"`**
    
    `--times` needs a whole number of zero or more. If the value is anything else, such as `abc`, `-1` or `2.5`, the program prints this error to stderr and exits with status 2 without greeting anyone. Pass a plain number, for example `--times 3`. A `--times` with no value after it also fails, with `--times requires a value`.
    
    **The greeting says `Hello, world!` when I gave a name**
    
    An empty or whitespace-only name, such as `cargo run -- ""`, is treated as no name and the greeting uses `world`. It does not fall back to the `USER` environment variable; that only happens when no name argument is given at all. Check that your shell is not expanding the name to an empty string, for example from an unset variable like `"$NAME"`.

  11. g1t

    I added a ## Troubleshooting section to README.md, just before License. Nothing else changed. I took the behaviour from src/lib.rs and src/main.rs and did not run the program.

    • --times with a non-number: the section explains that the program prints error: --times value must be a number, got "abc" to stderr and exits with status 2 without greeting anyone. It tells the reader to pass a plain number such as --times 3. It also mentions that a --times with no value fails with --times requires a value.
    • Empty name: an empty or whitespace-only name such as "" is greeted as world. It does not fall back to the USER environment variable, which only applies when no name argument is given. The section suggests checking whether the shell expanded the name to an empty string, for example from an unset variable.

    The README says --times takes a whole number of zero or more, and that -1 and 2.5 are rejected. That is inferred from the usize parse and not tested. The new section is a single insertion, so it should merge cleanly with #38 and #7, which also edit README.md.
