Could this message show only when seached for 1 arity filter (no semicolon), and there is a filter with the same name but the arity if commas are replaced by semicolon? |

echo '{"f":"a"}' | jq '.f | sub("a","b")'
above line generates the following unclear error message:
jq: error: sub/1 is not defined at <top-level>, line 1:
.f | sub("a","b")
jq: 1 compile error
This patch is changing the error message to:
jq: error: sub/1 is not defined, also happens when you separate arguments by comma (,) instead of semicolon (;), at <top-level>, line 1:
.f | sub("a","b")
jq: 1 compile error
because the correct command is:
echo '{"f":"a"}' | jq '.f | sub("a";"b")'
