Hmmm. I must admit I am not a fan. It feels natural to have --pid, -p
for tools. And it looks like breaking API if someone is using
dwfl_standard_argp in their own programs now. It is certainly a pity if
that means we aren't command line compatible with some of the binutils
tools. But I am not sure it really justifies just dropping -p from
dwfl_standard_argp.

Cheers,
