* Possible option types:
- ``switch_option`` - a simple boolean switch, for example ``-time``.
- ``switch_option`` - a simple boolean switch without arguments,
for example ``-O2`` or ``-time``.
- ``parameter_option`` - option that takes an argument, for example
``-std=c99``;

example ``-std=c99``. It is also allowed to use spaces instead of

option occurence is allowed.

and parameter value are not separated.
- ``prefix_option`` - same as the parameter_option, but the option
name and argument do not have to be separated. Example:
``-ofile``. This can be also specified as ``-o file``; however,
``-o=file`` will be parsed incorrectly (``=file`` will be
interpreted as option value).
- ``prefix_list_option`` - same as the above, but more than one
occurence of the option is allowed; example: ``-lm -lpthread``.
