parse-options: never suppress arghelp if LITERAL_ARGHELP is set
The PARSE_OPT_LITERAL_ARGHELP flag allows a program to override the standard "<argument> for mandatory, [argument] for optional" markup in its help message. Extend it to override the usual "no text for disallowed", too (for the PARSE_OPT_NOARG | PARSE_OPT_LITERAL_ARGHELP case, which was previously meaningless), to be more intuitive. The motivation is to allow update-index to correctly advertise --cacheinfo <mode> <object> <path> add the specified entry to the index while abusing PARSE_OPT_NOARG to disallow the "sticked form" --cacheinfo=<mode> <object> <path> Noticed-by: Stephen Boyd <bebarino@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
