[PATCH v4 01/18] parse-options: enhance STOP_AT_NON_OPTION

Make parse_options_step() report PARSE_OPT_NON_OPTION instead of PARSE_OPT_DONE to the caller, when it sees a non-option argument.

This will help implementing a nonstandard option syntax that takes more than one parameters to an option, e.g.

  -L n1,m1 pathspec1 -L n2,m2 pathspec2

by directly calling parse_options_step(). The parse_options() API only calls parse_options_step() once, and its callers are not affected by this change.
