  36 * `type`::
  37 *   holds the type of the option, you must have an OPTION_END last in your
  38 *   array.
  39 *
  40 * `short_name`::
  41 *   the character to use as a short option name, '\0' if none.
  42 *
  43 * `long_name`::
  44 *   the long option name, without the leading dashes, NULL if none.
  45 *
  46 * `value`::
  47 *   stores pointers to the values to be filled.
  48 *
  49 * `argh`::
  50 *   token to explain the kind of argument this option wants. Keep it
  51 *   homogenous across the repository.
  52 *
  53 * `help`::
  54 *   the short help associated to what the option does.
  55 *   Must never be NULL (except for OPTION_END).
  56 *   OPTION_GROUP uses this pointer to store the group header.
  57 *
  58 * `flags`::
  59 *   mask of parse_opt_option_flags.
  60 *   PARSE_OPT_OPTARG: says that the argument is optionnal (not for BOOLEANs)
  61 *   PARSE_OPT_NOARG: says that this option takes no argument, for CALLBACKs
  62 *   PARSE_OPT_NONEG: says that this option cannot be negated
  63 *   PARSE_OPT_HIDDEN this option is skipped in the default usage, showed in
  64 *                    the long one.
  65 *
  66 * `callback`::
  67 *   pointer to the callback to use for OPTION_CALLBACK.
  68 *
  69 * `defval`::
  70 *   default value to fill (*->value) with for PARSE_OPT_OPTARG.
  71 *   OPTION_{BIT,SET_INT,SET_PTR} store the {mask,integer,pointer} to put in
  72 *   the value when met.
  73 *   CALLBACKS can use it like they want.
