Descripción
Consider a simple program:
```
import fire
def add(a, zero=0):
print('calculating...')
print(a + zero)
if __name__ == '__main__':
fire.Fire(add)
```
And then suppose we make a typo in the argument name, writing ``--zerro`` instead of ``--zero``. This is what I get with fire 0.1.3 under Python 3.6:
```
$ python t.py 1 --zerro 2
calculating...
1
Fire trace:
1. Initial component
2. Called routine "add" (t.py:3)
3. ('Could not consume arg:', '--zerro')
Type: NoneType
String form: None
Usage: t.py 1 -
```
Notice that first we run the code, and only then the error is reported. While I expected the errors to be checked before any user code is executed, because this code could be working for a long time, doing wrong things, etc.
