   5 * Parse one item in an -L begin,end option w.r.t. the notional file
   6 * object 'cb_data' consisting of 'lines' lines.
   7 *
   8 * The 'nth_line_cb' callback is used to determine the start of the
   9 * line 'lno' inside the 'cb_data'.  The caller is expected to already
  10 * have a suitable map at hand to make this a constant-time lookup.
  11 *
  12 * 'anchor' is the 1-based line at which relative range specifications
  13 * should be anchored. Absolute ranges are unaffected by this value.
  14 *
  15 * Returns 0 in case of success and -1 if there was an error.  The
  16 * actual range is stored in *begin and *end.  The counting starts
  17 * at 1!  In case of error, the caller should show usage message.
