Currently, running `scripts/atomic/gen-rust-atomic-helpers.sh` without
arguments results in a broken header file and grep errors:
$ scripts/atomic/gen-rust-atomic-helpers.sh
grep: : No such file or directory
grep: : No such file or directory
The user may do this to re-generate the Rust helpers, not realizing that
they called the wrong script [1]. In this scenario, point the user to
`scripts/atomic/gen-atomics.sh` instead of failing in a cryptic way.
$ scripts/atomic/gen-rust-atomic-helpers.sh
call scripts/atomic/gen-atomics.sh instead
