This series has a few fixes from Phillip's review, set up as individual patches. Justification is light, as many are hopefully straightforward?

The most important patch comes first. The rest are probably take-or-leave.

D. Ben Knoble (5):
  parseopt: fix :(optional) at command line to only ignore missing files
  doc: clarify command equivalence comment
  parseopt: use boolean type for a simple flag
  config: use boolean type for a simple flag
  parseopt: restore const qualifier to parsed filename
