add support for long-opts (#332)
Uses [optparse] to add support for long-opts. optparse is posix compliant with getopt(3) and thus would be backwards compatible. It does not have any dependency (not even the c standard library!) and is C89 compatible and thus fits our current code-style. [optparse]: https://github.com/skeeto/optparse Note that we're using a couple `pragma`-s to silence some harmless warnings. This should be portable because these pragma-s don't change the behavior of the program. Furthermore, C standard mandates that unknown pragma's should be ignored by the compiler and thus would not result in build failure on compilers which do not recognize them.

+/* Optparse --- portable, reentrant, embeddable, getopt-like option parser
+ *
+ * This is free and unencumbered software released into the public domain.
+ *
+ * To get the implementation, define OPTPARSE_IMPLEMENTATION.
+ * Optionally define OPTPARSE_API to control the API's visibility
+ * and/or linkage (static, __attribute__, __declspec).
+ *
+ * The POSIX getopt() option parser has three fatal flaws. These flaws
+ * are solved by Optparse.
+ *
+ * 1) Parser state is stored entirely in global variables, some of
+ * which are static and inaccessible. This means only one thread can
+ * use getopt(). It also means it's not possible to recursively parse
+ * nested sub-arguments while in the middle of argument parsing.
+ * Optparse fixes this by storing all state on a local struct.
+ *
+ * 2) The POSIX standard provides no way to properly reset the parser.
+ * This means for portable code that getopt() is only good for one
+ * run, over one argv with one option string. It also means subcommand
+ * options cannot be processed with getopt(). Most implementations
+ * provide a method to reset the parser, but it's not portable.
+ * Optparse provides an optparse_arg() function for stepping over
+ * subcommands and continuing parsing of options with another option
+ * string. The Optparse struct itself can be passed around to
+ * subcommand handlers for additional subcommand option parsing. A
+ * full reset can be achieved by with an additional optparse_init().
+ *
+ * 3) Error messages are printed to stderr. This can be disabled with
+ * opterr, but the messages themselves are still inaccessible.
+ * Optparse solves this by writing an error message in its errmsg
+ * field. The downside to Optparse is that this error message will
+ * always be in English rather than the current locale.
+ *
+ * Optparse should be familiar with anyone accustomed to getopt(), and
+ * it could be a nearly drop-in replacement. The option string is the
+ * same and the fields have the same names as the getopt() global
+ * variables (optarg, optind, optopt).
+ *
+ * Optparse also supports GNU-style long options with optparse_long().
+ * The interface is slightly different and simpler than getopt_long().
+ *
+ * By default, argv is permuted as it is parsed, moving non-option
+ * arguments to the end. This can be disabled by setting the `permute`
+ * field to 0 after initialization.
