A dashless switch (like '(' passed to 'git grep') cannot be negated,
cannot be attached to an argument, and cannot have a long form.
Currently parse-options runs the related sanity checks when the
dashless option is used; better to always check them at the start of
option parsing, so mistakes can be caught more quickly.
The error message at the new call site is less specific about the
nature of the error, for simplicity. On the other hand, it prints
which switch was problematic. Before:
fatal: BUG: dashless options can't be long
After:
error: BUG: switch '(' uses feature not supported for dashless options

The PARSE_OPT_LASTARG_DEFAULT flag is meant for options like
--contains that (1) traditionally had a mandatory argument and
(2) have some better behavior to use when appearing in the final
position. It makes no sense to combine this with OPTARG, so ever
since v1.6.4-rc0~71 (parse-options: add parse_options_check to
validate option specs, 2009-07-09) this mistake is flagged with
error: `--option` uses incompatible flags LASTARG_DEFAULT and OPTARG
and an exit status representing an error in commandline usage.
Unfortunately that which might confuse scripters calling such an
erroneous program into thinking the _script_ contains an error.
Clarify that it is an internal error by dying with a message beginning
"error: BUG: ..." and status 128.
While at it, clean up parse_options_check to prepare for more checks.

Make git-branch, git-show-branch, git-grep, and all the diff-based
programs accept an optional argument <when> for --color. The argument
is a colorbool: "always", "never", or "auto". If no argument is given,
"always" is used; --no-color is an alias for --color=never. This makes
the command-line interface consistent with other GNU tools, such as `ls'
and `grep', and with the git-config color options. Note that, without
an argument, --color and --no-color work exactly as before.
To implement this, two internal changes were made:
1. Allow the first argument of git_config_colorbool() to be NULL,
in which case it returns -1 if the argument isn't "always", "never",
or "auto".
2. Add OPT_COLOR_FLAG(), OPT__COLOR(), and parse_opt_color_flag_cb()
to the option parsing library. The callback uses
git_config_colorbool(), so color.h is now a dependency
of parse-options.c.

There are a few remaining ones, but this fixes the trivial ones. It boils
down to two main issues that sparse complains about:
- warning: Using plain integer as NULL pointer
Sparse doesn't like you using '0' instead of 'NULL'. For various good
reasons, not the least of which is just the visual confusion. A NULL
pointer is not an integer, and that whole "0 works as NULL" is a
historical accident and not very pretty.
A few of these remain: zlib is a total mess, and Z_NULL is just a 0.
I didn't touch those.
- warning: symbol 'xyz' was not declared. Should it be static?
Sparse wants to see declarations for any functions you export. A lack
of a declaration tends to mean that you should either add one, or you
should mark the function 'static' to show that it's in file scope.
A few of these remain: I only did the ones that should obviously just
be made static.
That 'wt_status_submodule_summary' one is debatable. It has a few related
flags (like 'wt_status_use_color') which _are_ declared, and are used by
builtin-commit.c. So maybe we'd like to export it at some point, but it's
not declared now, and not used outside of that file, so 'static' it is in
this patch.

Commit dbd0f5c (Files given on the command line are relative to $cwd,
2008-08-06) introduced parse_options_fix_filename() as a minimal fix.
OPT_FILENAME is intended to be a more robust fix for the same issue.
OPT_FILENAME and its associated enum OPTION_FILENAME are used to
represent filename options within the parse options API.
This option is similar to OPTION_STRING. If --no is prefixed to the
option the filename is unset. If no argument is given and the default
value is set, the filename is set to the default value. The difference
is that the filename is prefixed with the prefix passed to
parse_options() (or parse_options_start()).
Update git-apply, git-commit, git-fmt-merge-msg, and git-tag to use
OPT_FILENAME with their filename options. Also, rename
parse_options_fix_filename() to fix_filename() as it is no longer
extern.

To give OPT_FILENAME the prefix, we pass the prefix to parse_options()

Usually, the argh element in struct option points at a placeholder value
(e.g. "val"), and is shown in the usage message as
--option=<val>
by enclosing the string inside of angle brackets.
When the option is more complex (e.g. optional arguments separated by a
comma), you would want to produce a usage message that looks like
--option=<val1>[,<val2>]
In such a case, the caller can pass a string to argh with placeholders
already enclosed in necessary angle brackets (e.g. "<val1>[,<val2>]")

When running "git commit -F file" and "git tag -F file" from a
subdirectory, we should take it as relative to the directory we started
from, not relative to the top-level directory.
This adds a helper function "parse_options_fix_filename()" to make it more
convenient to fix this class of issues. Ideally, parse_options() should
support a new type of option, "OPT_FILENAME", to do this uniformly, but
this patch is meant to go to 'maint' to fix it minimally.
One thing to note is that value for "commit template file" that comes from
the command line is taken as relative to $cwd just like other parameters,
but when it comes from the configuration varilable 'commit.template', it
is taken as relative to the working tree root as before. I think this
difference actually is sensible (not that I particularly think
commit.template itself is sensible).

* add the possibility to use callbacks to parse some options, this can
help implementing new options kinds with great flexibility. struct option
gains a callback pointer and a `defval' where callbacks user can put
either integers or pointers. callbacks also can use the `value' pointer
for anything, preferably to the pointer to the final storage for the value
though.
* add a `flag' member to struct option to make explicit that this option may
have an optional argument. The semantics depends on the option type. For
INTEGERS, it means that if the switch is not used in its
--long-form=<value> form, and that there is no token after it or that the
token does not starts with a digit, then it's assumed that the switch has
no argument. For STRING or CALLBACK it works the same, except that the
condition is that the next atom starts with a dash. This is needed to
implement backward compatible behaviour with existing ways to parse the
command line. Its use for new options is discouraged.

The option parser takes argc, argv, an array of struct option
and a usage string. Each of the struct option elements in the array
describes a valid option, its type and a pointer to the location where the
value is written. The entry point is parse_options(), which scans through
the given argv, and matches each option there against the list of valid
options. During the scan, argv is rewritten to only contain the
non-option command line arguments and the number of these is returned.
Aggregation of single switches is allowed:
-rC0 is the same as -r -C 0 (supposing that -C wants an arg).
Every long option automatically support the option with the same name,
prefixed with 'no-' to unset the switch. It assumes that initial value for
strings are "NULL" and for integers is "0".
Long options are supported either with '=' or without:
--some-option=foo is the same as --some-option foo
