This is a standalone version of the getopt program from the util-linux
suite (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/util-linux).
It supports all the features of the regular version, minus currently:

It is a single-file implementation, primarily configured for Chimera Linux's
musl environment, but it should be functional on any Linux system. It is
somewhat less portable than the upstream version, primarily due to a much
simpler build system that makes assumptions.
The primary reason for separation is so that it can be used in environments
that do not use util-linux, and so that it can be compiled with stricter
hardening flags that upstream util-linux suite cannot be built with.
Same as upstream, i.e. GPL 2.0 or any later version.
