------------------------------------

@chtompki Well, 216 is about disabling concatenated options, and 217 is
about disabling partial matching; my patch implements the latter, i.e, you
still have concatenated options, but can opt to disable partial matching:
foo -ver
!=
foo --version
So in the above, -ver could be a concatenated set of options, which, with
the help of this patch, does not erronuously get interpreted as a partially
matched long option 'version'.
