[PATCH 5/6] parse-options: add precision handling for OPTION_BITOP

Similar to 09705696f7 (parse-options: introduce precision handling for `OPTION_INTEGER`, 2025-04-17) support value variables of different sizes for OPTION_BITOP. Do that by requiring their "precision" to be set, casting their "value" pointer accordingly and checking whether the value fits.

Checking "defval" has the side-effect of also requiring PARSE_OPT_NOARG. This is sensible, as OPTION_BITOP doesn't handle any arguments, so we take this unintended benefit.

Don't check "extra", though, as its value is only used to clear bits, so cannot lead to an overflow. Not checking continues to allow e.g., using -1 to clear all bits even if the value variable has a narrower type than intptr_t.
