Isaac Oscar Gariano 9d56cdbcbc Added a -U/--unknown-arguments option to argparse ...

The new -U/--unknown-arguments option takes either 'optional', 'required', or
'none', indicating how many arguments unknown options are assumed to take.
The default is optional, the same behaviour as before this commit, despite
most options in practice taking not taking any arguments. Using
--unknown-arguments=required and --unknown-arguments=none (but not
--unknown-arguments=optional) can give you parse errors if, respectively,
an unknown option has no argument (because it the option is at the end of the
argument list), or is given an argument (with the `--flag=<value> syntax).
See doc_src/cmds/argparse.rst for more details (specifically, the descritpion
of the --unknown-arguments flag and the example at the end
of the examples section).

As a convenience, -U/--unknown-arguments implies -u/--move-unknown.
However you can use it the deprecated -i/--ignore-unknown if you really want to.
